THANK YOU FOR YOUR PARTICIPATION IN WCTP 2021!

Dear participants of the WCTP 2021 in Amsterdam, dear members of the ESTP,

in the name of the European Society for Tattoo and Pigment Research and the congress chairs, I would like to thank you for your participation of this years congress. We think back to a successful congress, with many participants from numerous nationalities and working fields, attending physical or virtual. We felt a positive and enthusiastic atmosphere during the congress and the social events. Your participation and input was highly appreciated and we hereby thank you for this. 

Despite the uncertainties we and you had to face during the planning of the congress, we achieved a lively and successful exchange of knowledge, valuable discussions and new connections to other people in the field. 

Our first hybrid event enabled people all over the world to join and profit from the expertise of the 58 talks and panel discussions during the conference. We tried to involve the virtual participants as much as possible and apologize for all questions that could not be answered either due to time limitations or technical problems. We will take our lessons from here and likely proceed with this hybrid congress format from now on. 

For those who are not members yet, we highly recommend to get a ESTP membership. Besides reduced fees for the congresses, you also support us survive financially in the long term. 

We hope to see you at the next WCTP congress in 2023!
