AGILE 2016 will take place in Helsinki, the capital of Finland, the 'Daughter of the Baltic Sea'. Excellent flight connections have made Helsinki one of the most attractive congress destinations in Northern Europe. This Nordic capital is known as a safe, secure and clean city with high standards of education and technology. In addition, the city reflects nature, sea, design and architecture. Over 450 years of history, several architectural layers and the impact of different periods can clearly be seen in Helsinki. The beauty of the surrounding nature blends seamlessly together with high-tech achievements, while old traditions mix with the latest contemporary trends.
