The University of Siena was founded in 1240 and is one of the oldest universities in Europe. Most premises of the University of Siena are located in the city centre, inside the historic city wall, in the medieval heart of the city of Siena. The historical centre of Siena (which is largely pedestrianised) has been declared by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. The 12AHIC is hosted by the Department of Business and Law of the University of Siena. It will take place at the School of Economics and Management and the Rectorate of the University of Siena, both located in the city centre.
