ILDA
Conference overview
| |
 |
| |
At
the 2003 ILDA Conference in Brussels, master of ceremonies Steve
Heminover presents an ILDA Award to Jim Hardaway.
|
Since 1987, one of the
highlights of ILDA has been the annual Conference. It is open to both
ILDA Members and to non-members; however, non-members do pay more for
registration.
The ILDA Conference
includes the Advanced Technology Workshop, an informal showing of laser
works called the "Lase-Off", the ILDA Awards presentation (pictured
at right), the ILDA Trade Show, a business meeting, and seminar-type
sessions that may be of interest to Members.
There is a registration
fee for the Conference. In recent years the fee for ILDA Members has
been between USD $150 and $500, depending on what facilities ILDA needs
to rent. ILDA registration
typically includes two meals, the Lase-Off and Banquet, plus attendance at
all ILDA functions. Note that hotel room and other meals are
separate.
Previous
ILDA Conference locations
Click here for a
list of previous ILDA conference locations. In recent years, ILDA tries
to get a mix between Europe, North America, and "other". For example,
the 2006 location was Rimini, Italy; the 2007 meeting was in China near
Hong Kong, the 2008 location was a Caribbean cruise leaving from
Miami, Florida, and the 2009 location was near Amsterdam, Netherlands.
What
it takes to host an ILDA Conference
There is a surprising
amount of work and detail that goes on "backstage" in order to make an
ILDA Conference go smoothly. L. Michael Roberts has put together an
extensive guide called "So You Want to Host an ILDA Conference."
If you're interested, you can read more about it
here.
Sample
proposals and contract
If you are interested in
hosting, ILDA has samples from the 2007 proposal process.
This page has a summary of the
three 2007 proposals, side-by-side. It shows some of the factors which
are considered when making a hosting decision. A detailed proposal
submitted in support of China for 2007 is
here, and the
detailed proposal for South Africa 2007 is
here.
A contract is required
between the host company and ILDA. A sample contract is
here,
to give an idea of how responsibilities are shared.
