IDA ICE Power User Days 2025 in Cham, Switzerland

Registration deadline 11th March 2025

We cordially invite all our IDA ICE users to our Poweruser Days 2025 in Cham. The event will mainly be a get-together for our users and our developers. You will get an in-depth insight into our latest developments, the opportunity to exchange ideas with each other and the chance to influence our next development steps. Because our entire international crew will be there, and so that our French-speaking users can also benefit, the Power Userdays will be held entirely in English.
