Gala Dinner & Friday's ICCF-19 Windup

The gala venue was in Caffe Pedrocchi, Pauda's most prestigious and historical restaurant. The cafe is a palace itself of marbel, high pillars, glass and brass. The diners were a congenial bunch, much more lubricated and talkative than at the daily coffee breaks.
Next year's ICCF-20 conference gets underway in Japan's Sendai city.

Opening Friday's session was Mr. Michel Vandenberghe who talked about the challenges of structuring his LENR-Cities startup, a business facilitating co-operation of researchers and prospective marketers of LENR products and services. See also August 2014 post.

I was successful in getting some preliminary statistics from the ICCF staff on the composition of the "Professional" registrants at the conference.

One sequel to ICCF-19 is stirring in North Carolina:

Another participant may well be Tianjin Huayan industrial Park. Remember, Tom Darden, Chairman of Industrial Heat, LLC was present at the park's opening.
All this activity may be a prelude to Industrial Heat's big product announcement and/or a proposal for an accepted LENR theory.
