The ICOHTEC Symposium will be held in Glasgow on August 2-7, 2011. The main theme of the meeting will be “Consumer Choice and Technology”. The aim is to examine the interaction of technology and consumer behaviour in a historical perspective; especially to focus on factors steering consumption and how consumers by their choices have influenced in technological development in the past. A transition from agrarian society to consumer society was one of the epochmaking phases in human history that can be studied from various aspects and contexts.

The Symposium will be held at the campus of the Glasgow University and will provide versatile social events. Further information will be available on the website of ICOHTEC next few weeks.

We hope to meet you in Glasgow in August 2011!

Timo Myllyntaus
Secretary General, ICOHTEC
