Klagenfurt is situated at the beautiful Lake Wörthersee – one of the largest and warmest alpine lakes in Europe – and has nearly 95.000 inhabitants. Being a small city, with a Renaissance-style city center reflecting 800 years of history and with Italian influence, Klagenfurt is a pleasant place to live and work.

Klagenfurt is not only a lively city, but also a very historical town: predominantly Italian master builders have determined the appearance of the historic old town. Discover magnificent Renaissance buildings, facades renovated true to the original style and shady arcaded inner courtyards on a stroll through the old town; see the beauty of the sacral buildings on a church walk; or visit one of the many museums, castles and galleries.

The CBMI 2014 will take place at the Klagenfurt University, which is located only about 1.5 kilometers east of Lake Wörthersee and about 3 kilometers west of the city center.
