The 11th VDI Conference, "Odours in the Environment," will take place on November 18-19, 2025, at the Wyndham Grand Salzburg Conference Centre in Salzburg, Austria, and promises to be a key gathering for odour management professionals from the German-speaking world.

  The previous edition in Leipzig, which had approximately 160 participants, was hailed as a resounding success. This year's special theme will focus on "Odour Dispersion Modelling and the Practical Challenges in Real-World Applications." Suppose you are an expert in odour emissions, ambient air measurements, or odour forecasting, and you know a bit of German. In that case, this is your opportunity to share your insights and engage in discussions with other professionals in the field.

   We regret to announce the cancellation of the international conference ODORA25, which was scheduled to take place on September 16 and 17, 2025, at the Euskalduna Palace in Bilbao, Spain.

    After carefully evaluating the current circumstances, we have been forced to make this difficult decision due to logistical and organizational factors that prevent us from ensuring the optimal development of the event. We are fully aware of the inconvenience this cancellation may cause to speakers, attendees, and partner companies who had already shown interest in participating, and we would like to express our sincere gratitude for the support and trust received.
