Conference Invitation
"It is great satisfaction and pleasure that I welcome everyone interested in participating in the 21st Autex 2022 Conference. I hope that despite the meeting: 100% online, the Conference will be an unforgettable event for all participants. I wish you intense and fruitful discussions during our Conference.
Meanwhile, I would like to show you around our wonderful city of Lodz - the city woven from history, textile industry and film, where now the rich history is intertwined with modernity in art, fashion and architecture. I invite you also to take a virtual trip around our university by visiting our website."
