CONFERENCE OPENING CEREMONY and SESSIONS

Dear Participants and Honorable Guests welcome to the 15^th International Conference on “Standardization, Protypes and Quality: A Means of Balkan Countries’ Collaboration, organized by Trakya University, Şehit Ressam Hasan Rıza Vocational College of Fine Arts. 

The International Conference within in the scope of “Standardization, Protypes and Quality: A Means of Balkan Countries’ Collaboration” were organized by the Balkan Coordinating Committee (BCC) in a different Balkan country each year. This year in Edirne, Turkey, we were honored to host you for the 15^th of the International Conferences series.

Many important scientists from the Balkan countries as well as Europe, Caucasus and Asian countries had contribution to the conference which is hosted by Turkey. We strongly believed that this conference is not only important for Turkey to contribute to the initiative in the field of standardization, but also for the promotion of Edirne and our University.

Our conference began with speeches of our honorable keynotes and invited speakers followed by the participants’ speeches in parallel sessions. There were a total of 90 presentations, 56 of which are prepared by international participants. In addition, three different exhibitions titled “Group Exhibition of Trakya University’s Instructors”, “Unforeseen Moments Macrophotography Exhibition by EFOD” and “Edirne from the Brushes of Balkan Painters” contributed to the conference to emphasize the importance of art.

We are very delightful to be hosting the 15^th International Conference on “Standardization, Protypes and Quality: A Means of Balkan Countries’ Collaboration”.

We hope to see you at other events.
