Munich, the state capital of Bavaria, is a well known economic hub and leisure center, focal point of art and culture, crossroads of history and modern times. The metropolis on the Isar River combines old Bavarian tradition and broad-minded openness toward the world, deep-rooted customs and dynamic innovation, sovereign composure and pulsating activity.
The joint CCA/CACSD/ISIC conference is held just after the 2006 Oktoberfest, the most traditional and world famous Munich festival (September 16 – October 3).
