Conference Spotlight: Ultra Low Temperatures 2025

We welcomed more than 100 of the world’s global leaders in low temperature physics and technology who attended a major international conference at Lancaster University, in the first UK event for 17 years.

Viktor Tsepelin is a Professor in Condensed Matter Physics at the University, who attended the "ULT2025: Frontiers of Low Temperature Physics”. Viktor said: 

"The Conferences & Events+ service was instrumental in the success of our international event. The team expertly managed registration, accommodation, and catering for over 120 delegates. We received excellent feedback on the organisation, lunches, refreshments, and the conference banquet—professional, reliable, and attentive throughout."
