Macao is located on the western bank of the Pearl River Delta in southern Guangdong Province, China. As an important part of the Greater Bay Area, Macao serves as a bridge between mainland China and foreign countries. The Portuguese arrived and settled in Macao in the mid-16th Century. Owing to the European influence, the city's architecture, art, religion, traditions, food and community reflect the integration of Chinese and Western (Portuguese) cultures. The Historic Centre of Macao has been added to the UNESCO World Heritage List as a result of its unique historical and cultural landscape.

On behalf of the Organizing Committee, we cordially invite you to attend ICMPB & SNPBR meeting. We all look forward to welcoming you in Macao!
