Presenting at the Symposium
If you would like to present a paper at the Lift & Escalator Symposium, the first step is to submit an abstract of up to 300 words.
The abstract should state the authors' names, affiliations and email address, the title of the paper, the objectives, methodology employed, the main results and the conclusions of the research. Abstracts cannot include a product or service name: we welcome you writing about the technology you are applying, but advertorials will not be accepted.
Short abstracts of up to 300 words can be submitted here.
