This pearl on the French Riviera has now been the home of EVER for three years, and, in agreement with your vote, will be that for another four. EVER continues to be a dynamic, strong organisation with the annual Meeting acting as a conduit for researchers, clinician-scientists and clinicians, as well as industry partners in the field of vision and eye disease to exchange ideas, learn, enthuse and stimulate, with solid science in a relaxed atmos- phere and an Old World charming environment. The latter ensures that the interactions between participants can continue beyond those at the Meet- ing, in a setting of a historic city with a thriving restaurant scene for all budgets, and good weather. In addition, you may sometimes just want to go for a bit of culture, a shopping spree or absorb some Indian summer sunrays. The Annual EVER Meeting offers all of that. Over the years in Nice, we have seen a steady rise in the number of participants, which encourages the EVER Board to continue on the same path. A fantastic mix of opinion leaders, basic researchers, clinicians and clinician-scientists from Europe and far beyond, all flock to Nice, to interact, explain and absorb the latest novelties in our field. Strong support from our Industry partners has helped EVER flourish over its history, in particular during the last few years in Nice. Gratitude for their sup- port is abundant. The Annual EVER Meeting is certainly large enough to have the scientific clout required for an inter- national meeting, but at the same time small enough not to overwhelm and allow one to meet those one really wants to. The Meeting program offers a wide variety of scientific exchange formats in oph- thalmology and vision research, and includes plenary lectures by internationally renowned leaders in their fields, special interest symposia and courses by the experts, and free paper and poster sessions to present new results. I’m very grateful that you are joining us in Nice for the EVER 2015 Meeting, and thank you in advance for sharing your insights, knowledge and new ideas.
