The IFCN organises a conference for their partners twice a year, where the IFCN provides the opportunity to exchange the knowledge, experiences and get to know each other.  In 2009 the IFCN will hold  the 10^th IFCN Dairy Conference in Sweden and the 7^th IFCN Supporter Conference in Bremen.

At the IFCN Dairy Conference in June every year the IFCN researchers from current 78 research institutions from 72 countries plus the five Main Supporters of the IFCN and some special guests (e.g. Minister of Agriculture) come together.

The main part of the IFCN Dairy Conference takes three days and is divided into three main parts:

1. Farm comparison day with new country presentations, IFCN results  and special topic presentations

2. Special topic day with open session, working groups and farm visits

3. IFCN Strategy day with open discussions about further research developments

IFCN is looking forward to the 10^th jubilee of the IFCN Dairy Conference with fantastic people and an interesting program.

A contact point for all dairy related companies is the annual IFCN Supporter Conference organized by IFCN. Main objectives of the IFCN Supporter Conference are:

1. Improve dairy knowledge,
2. Understand dairy markets and drivers
3. Facilitate networking among the participanting companies
4. Develop ideas for the future of IFCN.

The location and hosting companies, which support the IFCN, are changing every year.

It is a pleasure for the IFCN to look back to the successful IFCN Supporter Conference history.
