About:

Data transfers and value demonstration of a service in building portfolio








Venue

University of Cyprus

1 Panepistimiou Avenue 

2109 Aglantzia, Nicosia


Where to stay

Hilton Cyprus (about 5 kms from the venue) for special rates (made only via Cynet with a very special rate of 103 EUR  – single and 137euro – double). Information on how to book it will follow very soon.

Other suggestions are Semeli Hotel (very close to Hilton) and for those who want to be right next to the venue (but rather far from the city centre) is UC Hall Residence.


Directions

Transportation (airport to hotel): For travelling from the airport to Nicosia you can use Kapnos Airport Shuttle (https://www.kapnosairportshuttle.com) or we can arrange for a taxi to pick people up (Mr. Andreas +357 99 689020 – about 50EUR per ride and less if shared).

Transportation (hotel to venue): The best way to get around is by taxi. Bus service is rather limited.

Where to land: We suggest landing at Larnaca airport, which is much closer to Nicosia than the Pafos.
