Association partnership between C-IN and ESPD sealed in Paris.

During the 13th Congress of the European Society for Pediatric Dermatology (ESPD) in Paris held at the end of May 2016 C-IN, as the association partner of ESPD, had a great opportunity to meet the Executive Board again and also the Board of Directors for the first time to evaluate the recent outcomes and improvements within the well-functioning collaboration. The Paris meeting could be equally perceived as the initiation for both short and long-term industry relationships, which was launched by the dedicated ESPD Sponsorship and Exhibition Manager.
ESPD was established in 1983 in Monte Carlo by a group of 40 doctors, who met on the initiative of Prof. Marc Larrègue to create the European Society for Pediatric Dermatology. The goals of ESPD are to promote clinical care, interdisciplinary research, education and training in the field of pediatric dermatology. The society holds an international meeting every year, alternating between research oriented ESPD Congress and the ESPD summer school. C-IN has already been appointed as the organiser of future meetings in Palma de Mallorca 2017, London 2018, Dubrovnik 2019 and Vienna 2020.
Today, the society has more than 200 members and with C-IN´s support and consultancy within association management, it is ready to grow further. “Our collaboration with C-IN was kicked off last fall in Geneva and led to diverse new activities: the new website was created for better visibility, mobile friendly technology and efficient membership management were introduced; we now organize meetings yearly as prime activity of our society allowing for continuous interaction within the ESPD and a better cooperation with industrial partners,” says Daniel Hohl, President of ESPD.

Growing your Association´s membership base: Communication is key
It goes without saying that the membership curve grows faster if the association holds a congress in that given year. Discounted registration fees and other benefits are an easy attraction. But what if the conference is held every two or even three years? The expectations for the number of members are logically lower, but one should not simply disregard this as a non-congress year.
