Science
congresses
The science congress sector has always been Symposium’s favourite
arena. Through its equally efficient handling of both consensus conferences
with a few highly qualified delegates, and major national and international
congresses with thousands of participants, Symposium has built up an experience
that enables it to take the flexible and smooth management of events of
every kind in its stride.
Medicine
is well to the fore in this context. Hundreds of initiatives have been
staged in conjunction with scientific associations, university departments,
divisions and hospitals. Symposium also specialises in the successful
management of events with particular technological requirements: videoconferences,
live transmissions of surgical operations and interactive sessions with
multimedia support.
Constant
professional updating of our staff comprises a coverage of changes in
the law and regulations. The excellent support thus made available for
congress promoters extends to the handling of administrative procedures,
such as those associated with the accrediting of events within the compass
of the Italian ECM (Continuous Medical Education) programme.
Symposium's track record in the medical sector is beyond compare. Engineering,
too, is another front-runner. Congresses and conferences are on the
company's list of successes. Furthermore, the frequent need to deal
with the presentation of a multitude of lectures, papers, communications
and posters has been met by the elaboration of efficient procedures
for the IT handling of enrolments and abstracts via systems integrated
with Symposium's website. The company's activities in conjunction with
the Turin Polytechnic, a leading player on the international stage,
are but one of several examples.
The
particular requirements of congresses on subjects in the many fields
of science demand organisational, technical and technological skills
that cannot be improvised on the spur of the moment. It is right here
that Symposium's long and far-reaching experience is the prelude to
efficacy and efficiency.
Meetings
and cultural events
Symposium is the ideal partner for those engaged in the promotion of
events of all kinds, from theatrical shows to music festivals, and from
meetings on topics drawn from history to lectures of current affairs.
A partner ready to take care of the organisation from A to Z, or simply
provide certain purpose-oriented services.
An
excellent example is Symposium's recent association with Turin's Fondazione
del Teatro Stabile (repertory company) in the organisation of the European
Theatre Award in 2006 and the Festival of the European Theatres Union
in 2007.
In addition to the performances on stage, in fact, the Festival programme
included lectures, seminars, meetings with the press and the public,
and social events. Symposium took care of the logistics (hotel bookings,
travel arrangements and transfer services) and the technicalities (audiovisuals,
interpretation and translation). Pre-event and on-site secretarial facilities,
catering, information points, liaison between the organisers and the
theatre companies invited were among the other services furnished with
the Symposium touch.
This was a challenging experience in a fascinating, but very particular
sector. Few companies can confidently claim to possess the specific
know-how required.
Symposium also provides comprehensive and reliable support for the organisation
of events devoted to music, such as shows and festivals whose ramifications
extend way beyond the arrangement of a simple concert. Promoters can
call upon the services of a member of the company whose experience in
the congress sector is allied with a high-level musical education, and
hence a thorough understanding of the problems involved.
Congresses
concerned with historical, political and social themes constitute another
facet of Symposium's activities. Mention may be made of the "European
and Italian Patent Law" congress promoted by the Italian Society
for the Study of Intellectual Property in 2004. Symposium also assisted
the ILO (International Labour Organisation) in the organisation of the
international "Employment and Social Policy in an Open Trading
Regime" conference held in Turin in 2005.
Corporate meetings
We are accustomed to working with firms as both the promoters and sponsors
of events.
We always seek to act in tune with the objectives they set when they
plan a meeting.
We know it is essential to work out a flexible way of operating that
meets a customer's needs, both practical and economic.
We always offer solutions that are tailor-made in terms of both handling
the service and added value: proposal of a particular location, adoption
of innovative communication techniques, a collateral programme that
combines relaxation and motivation, and other things besides.
We have assisted both small and large companies in the elaboration of
their programmes.
Sometimes through total handling of the event, sometimes with selected
services, and sometimes with simple consultancy.
We are fully aware of the value of communication. We are not an incentive
house, but we do know how to propose solutions that will motivate the
participants.
We know how to adjust our services to suit the target: customers, sales
force, press.
We are a complete company that can operate from A to Z and ensure a
reliable service and creative planning.
An ideal mix of professional skills for the success of your event.
