13:00	Future Application Directions for Neuromorphic Computing Technologies We are sorry to announce, that the NEUROTECH event, planned for 16 March 2020, will be POSTPONED, due to the current COVID-19 situtation Please find more information on this NICE 2020 information page (NICE is postponed as well). The half-day event is organized by the NEUROTECH project . The NEUROTECH brochure.pdf gives an overview of the offerings by the NEUROTECH partners as of Occtober 2019 Please register here (free of charge, but mandatory for planning purposes) Streaming We will offer a live web-stream for all talks. The Streaming URL will be made available here latest on 16 March 2020 in the morning. Info: all times in the agenda are CET (Central European Time = UTC + 1h) Venue Kirchhoff-Institute for Physics, Im Neuenheimer Feld 227, D-69120 Heidelberg, Germany show a map of the venue + some hotel locations NICE 2020 This NEUROTECH event takes place on the day before the NICE 2020 conference (at the same venue, ~~17-19 March 2020~~ with an optional tutorial day on ~~20 March 2020~~). Hotels These hotels are relatively close to the meeting venue (Kirchhoff-Institute for Physics, see map). A lot more hotels are listed in online hotel booking sites (e.g. on booking.com) Heidelberg Marriott Hotel, Vangerowstraße 16, D-69115 Heidelberg -- this hotel is in about 15 min walking distance to the meeting site.
