65th International EUHA Congress of Hearing Aid Acousticians. September 15 to 17. Hanover. 5,200 delegates (65% of 2019 attendance) from 60 countries. 20 expert lectures. 4 tutorials. 4 Future Friday lectures. 87 exhibitors from 16 countries.
Justifiably declared a success by its organisers, who until the last minute were on tenterhooks about the event actually taking place, this 2021 EUHA event was the first conference to take place at the vast Hanover Messe centre since the Covid lockdown in Germany. Understandably, overcoming fears and meeting safety demands meant conditions were strict, but the organisers kept it friendly and discreet. Over 5,000 masked—and vaccinated or 24-hour tested—delegates managed to mingle in a mood as near normal as possible, and without any reported critical public health consequences.
