Composite Conference 2012 has changed the host location of the conference to the New Mexico State University (DACC East Mesa Campus) in Las Cruces, NM to provide a more engaging and intimate conference environment. The DACC campus site is well-equipped to allow close-knit interactions and breakout groups.

The new location will consist of a main stage where Keynotes and Presentations will be presented at the beginning of each day, along with an annex for Breakout groups and Panel Discussions.  The conference will end each day with a focus on documenting gaps, preparing Roadmaps, and discussing research plans from the day’s presentations.

Tours of the NASA-WSTF facilities will not be affected by the change in venue and will be available upon request.

The mailing address for anything that needs to be sent for the conference.

physical address is:

2800 N. Sonoma Ranch Blvd.
