It is expected to follow the tradition of FIPSE-5,
A cultural trip to Ancient Olympia is planned for Sunday, June 16, and
FIPSE
Future Innovation in Process System Engineering (FIPSE) aims to provide a framework for researchers to come together and discuss selected topics in some depth, reflect on their accomplishments, and postulate future developments. The emphasis will, therefore, be on discussions rather than presentations and the future rather than the present and the past.
This is the sixth in a series of FIPSE conferences, which aims to look into the big open research and educational challenges in the area of Process Systems Engineering.

Conference Location
The Hotel
FIPSE-6 will be held at the unique Aldemar Olympian Village and Spa, a 5-star resort in Western Peloponnese overlooking the Ionian Sea. Right on the long award-winning sandy beach of Skafidia, the 350-acre resort nestles within landscaped lush gardens surrounded by palm, olive, and pine trees. Boasting both indulgence and a feeling of openness to nature makes your stay in this historical land of Greece an unforgettable experience.
Two cultural trips
Archaeological Site of Olympia — Sunday
The site of Olympia, in a valley in the Peloponnese, has been inhabited since prehistoric times. In the 10th century B.C., Olympia became a center for the worship of Zeus.
Tour to the temple of Apollo Epicurius — Tuesday
The temple was built at the height of the Greek civilization in the second half of the 5th century BC (420-400 BC). It was dedicated to Apollo Epicurius by the Phigaleians, who believed the god of sun and healing had protected them from plague and invasion.

Testimonials
Great workshop!
Excellent networking with sharing ideas and future prospective. Such workshops are very important to shape the direction of the PSE research.

Impressive
This is an unusual workshop and a very impressive one. Enjoyed the discussions a lot and learned a lot. Thanks for organizing

Most Informative
FIPSE was the most informative and rewarding conference I have been to as a graduate student. The change of format really suited the content, and by running a series of cohesive talks, followed by ample discussion time, I found I could take away much more useful information than a regular conference session. Couple this with a spectacular venue and FIPSE was a fantastic success

Excellent, New Kind … Magnificent Setting
This excellent, new kind of conference that you organized in the magnificent setting of the Western Peloponnese seems a long time ago now and I am now mired in current my day job as an HOD. Anyway, I found this one of the most stimulating and valuable conferences that I have attended because of its focused nature and the ability to meet and interact with all the speakers and participants

Refreshing Air of Reflection
Comparing with what one gets in the established conferences, a refreshing air of reflection

Learned a lot
“When I first arrived at the conference, I was a bit star-struck and intimidated by all of the impressive leaders in the field present. … Through discussions with many of the attendees, I learned a lot about the research process and different problems in PSE. Since the conference, I feel much more confident in my ability to network with others in the field, and I also have some extra motivation and ideas for my own research. The conference, both the work and fun parts, were organized outstandingly. …”.
Jenna Fromer (FIPSE-5 graduate student attendee)
Really unique event
“Really unique event done with a good balance of humor and serious work. Thank you for keeping the event moving despite the two postponements. It is important to do this brainstorming as PSE [moves to the] next decade”
Iino Harjukoski (FIPSE-5)
Structure extremely valuable
“As an industry participant, I found the symposium structure extremely valuable; good mix of talks and discussions; input from prospective industrial actually possible”.
Toms Vetter (FIPSE-5)
Enjoyed the discussions
“I very much enjoyed the discussions. They helped me to identify future research topics.”
Arthur Schweidtmann (FIPSE-5)
Best conference ever!
