Velamed User Group Meeting 2026
We are delighted to announce that this year's Velamed User Group Meeting will be hosted at 'SportFabrik' in Differdange, Luxembourg! We invite you to a truly impressive venue and "biomechanics' dream"!
Our host, the Luxembourg Institute for High Performance in Sport, will welcome us together with its own dedicated team and in collaboration with its scientific partner, the Luxembourg Institute of Research in Orthopedics, Sports Medicine and Science.
Look forward to exciting presentations and hands-on workshops where our users will showcase their projects, studies, and experiences. You can expect fascinating insights into biomechanics and movement science, as well as their applications in clinical practice, ergonomics, and (high performance) sports.
This event is not only a great networking opportunity for our customers, but also an ideal platform for anyone interested in biomechanics and movement analysis.
We are looking forward to seeing you in the beautiful city of Differdange!
