| 2013 SVC TechCon Technical Program Technical Program Dates: April 22-25, 2013
Rhode Island Convention Center | Providence, Rhode Island, USA |  
|
 
| This year’s conference features two application-specific themes, which
are embodied by our symposia on “Coatings and Surface Treatments for
Medical Applications” and “Thin Films for Photovoltaics and Batteries.”
In addition, we will offer 12 traditional sessions focused on our core
technologies. Our symposia both define and unite the 2013 TechCon by
touching on topics and technologies that span the broad capabilities
within the SVC community. In doing so, we connect basic research with
industrially relevant “problems” and this bridge serves as the framework
on which all of the major activities as well as our outstanding
education program are based. Our business-friendly environment is
evident in our unmatched exhibition, numerous networking events, and
sessions tailored to the scientist and engineer – no other organization
links innovation with business like the SVC. |
