In addition to the symposium, SIGVARIS organized a memorable Beach Party at the Sea Lounge of the Monte Carlo Beach Club. Nearly 200 registered guests came to enjoy a delicious barbecue dinner by the beach, hear some music and dance. Some refreshed in the pool, under the beautiful moonlight and skies, and all had a wonderful and unforgettable time.
