The perfect setting for business or pleasure, the iconic Vancouver Convention Centre - East is located in the heart of downtown Vancouver where everything is accessible – from hotel accommodations to an exciting variety of restaurant, entertainment, retail and recreational options.
The Convention Centre East first served as the Canada Pavilion for the World's Fair Expo in 1986. Since then, it has tripled in size with the addition of its West building in April 2009, and is recognized as one of the leading convention centres in the world.
SPIE believes that individuals with significant caregiving responsibilities should have an equal opportunity to share their research and participate in conferences and symposia.
SPIE Family Care Grants are designed to supplement caregiving costs incurred by SPIE Early Career Members who are registered to attend an SPIE meeting. See hotel details in the reservation system to find hotels that offer onsite childcare.
