Sismo

Sismo is the first specialized event in seismic hazard, knowledge, planning and mitigation. The field of seismic hazard prevention and mitigation, which has always been a top issue in European Countries, is now invested by rapid developments, both technical and economic.

 

Sismo involves the technical, industrial, academic, professional and public administration sectors in a number of highly qualified meetings.

 

In the frame of a large exhibition area, it focuses on conference sessions on seismic prevention, innovative technologies, security, development, research, training, fund raising, financing, regulatory framework and recent changes.
