Turkey requests a visa for passport holders from a number of European countries! If you are attending the conference, please check at www.evisa.gov.tr whether you need one or not. 

As of April 17, 2013, electronic visa (e-Visa) replaced the “sticker visa” which was issued at the border. Applicants now just need to log on to www.evisa.gov.tr, provide the requested information, and (after the application is approved) make an online payment and download their e-Visa.
