About Marbella  

In 2008, the ECA Electrical Industry Conference returns to Spain – this time to Marbella, the luxurious beach resort of the Costa del Sol.

"Spain's answer to St. Tropez"

With its relaxed and sunny atmosphere the Costa del Sol – the Sun Coast – features all the elements for a memorable conference.

The luxurious Marbella is Southern Spain’s answer to St. Tropez and remains a favourite location of the rich and famous. There’s so much to do in this sun-soaked resort town, which lives by the motto ‘A Way of Life’.

Marbella's main offerings

Marbella can be best appreciated by exploring the vibrant streets of the old town including the fabled Plaza de los Naranjos – ‘Orange Square’. The area’s trees and tropical plants are set against a backdrop of dazzling white buildings, while historic structures, small shops, galleries, bars and bistros make the area a hub of activity both day and night.

Marbella is also a haven for sports enthusiasts, offering a wide range of water sports and top class golf courses. The nearby marina/resort of Puerto Banus is just a short drive from the conference venue and boasts exciting nightlife and shopping opportunities, while the cities of Granada, Jerez and Seville are all within a day’s drive for those in search of culture and history.
