The conference was held at Perth Convention Exhibition Centre on Friday,7th of July 2006. It was an opportunity for people involved in science to meet, exchange information and experiences and all that in Tesla’s honour. The conference featured many interested topics about Nikola Tesla, and topics from modern science. The conference program can be downloaded here.
