The 2017 edition of the ITER Business Forum brought together from 28 to 30 March 2017 at the Palais des Papes in Avignon more than 1000 representatives from 433 companies from 25 countries, including more than 50% from abroad. Congress-goers were able, over three days, to meet, discuss and make contacts while informing themselves about the progress of the ITER programme and upcoming calls for tender.
This sixth edition of the ITER Business Forum, which is today the international benchmark event on the ITER programme, was organised by the ITER France Agency, with the support of the ITER International Organisation and its partners, the Chinese, Korean, Indian, Japanese, American and Russian domestic agencies.
Financial support from Région Sud was decisive for the success of the event, alongside other local partners.
