The conference will take place in Cracow, at the AGH University. If you go by car, you can use the address: al. Adama Mickiewicza 30, Cracow, Poland, or the coordinates: 50.06543 N, 19.92048 E.
To reach AGH University from the Cracow airport, take a train from the terminal building and get off on the main railway station Kraków Główny (travel time 17 min., trains depart twice an hour).
After getting off the train at Kraków Główny railway station, take the stairs or elevator down into the station hall. There you can find direction signs. There are two TAXI stands next to each of the exits from the station. The one next to a bus station is a bit closer, and it will be on your right when you leave the station hall. The other one, on Pawia street, has more taxicabs available, but it is behind a shopping centre (you will be guided by the signs through the centre). When you leave the centre, you will find the TAXI stand across the street, on your left. The target address for AGH University is Reymonta 7 (AGH main entrance).
If you would like to take a bus from the Kraków Główny railway station, head for the bus station. The bus stop will be on your left when you leave the station hall. Then take a bus number 192 and get off at AGH/UR stop (5th stop, a 20-minute ticket is enough). Afterwards, go back in the direction from which the bus came and take the first turn left (Reymonta street). The university entrance will be about 200 meters away, on the right, with a security barrier. On the gate there is a sign „BRAMA GŁÓWNA / Reymonta 7”.
Other bus lines that run from the station area to AGH/UR stop include: 179 and 304.
