Attending EC events is a very pleasant experience! The content is informative and the agenda is very well organized. I also like it because of the intimate format and the great new contacts you can meet here and build relationships with!
Very efficient and effective, 2 nights stay, and 35 meetings that were the focus of the event. Thanks to the forum we are now working on a couple of requests for big conferences!
I find Europe Congress events very interesting and very rich, full of networking, discovering new trends, and meeting with suppliers from an entire region in a friendly environment.
