Security, Health and Safety Please wear your name badge for all e2002 activities, as it is your identification and your safeguard against unwelcome guests. Unfortunately, IT Conferences are a temptation to sneak thieves so bags, laptops and other valuables are vulnerable. There will be security staff but hotels are open to the public and the organisers cannot accept any responsibility for losses so please look after your personal property so that lost or missing items do not spoil your conference. The organisers cannot take responsibility for personal health and safety. Delegates should be covered by personal health insurance and take care not to venture into dangerous areas, which fortunately are rare in Prague.

Accommodation e2002 delegates are advised that to get the maximum value out of the conference they should stay at the Corinthia Towers Hotel, a five star luxury hotel with the highest standards of facilities and service, which offers them special rates.

Through them you may book your accommodation in the Corinthia Towers and six other hotels: Hilton (5*), Corinthia Panorama (4*), Diplomat (4*), Aron (3*), Quality (3*), and Top (3*) which have a range of prices. e2002 delegates will get free transfers from the airport to these designated hotels (except the Diplomat which has a good metro connnection) and the conference site. Owing to Lybian interests in the Corinthia Group the US administration bars its citizens from trading in its hotels.
