CENTERIS 2009 is an international conference organized by the Polytechnic Institute of Cávado and Ave and the University of Trás-os-Montes e Alto Douro, that will address the largely multidisciplinary field embraced by the Enterprise Information Systems (EIS), from the social, organizational and technological perspectives. The Conference will take place at AXIS OFIR Beach Resort Hotel in Ofir, Esposende, Portugal, a 4-star Hotel located in one of the most beautiful landscapes in the North of Portugal. The Atlantic coast of Esposende is part of the Natural Park of the North Coast, a protected area of great beauty. Ofir is located in a wonderful historic and cultural region with three locations/zones proclaimed as UNESCO cultural World Heritage within 100 km: Historic Centre of Guimaraes (50Km), Historic Centre of Porto (40Km) and Alto Douro Wine Region.

The Hotel Axis Ofir is located 35 km north of the Oporto International Airport “Francisco Sa Carneiro”. It is connected by the highway A28. We suggest getting a taxi which cost would be around 35 Euros (one way), taking less than 30 min to the Hotel.
