Brüel & Kjær Regional Sales Meeting for Europe
28 February - 4 March 2011

I first got in touch with C-IN and Project Development Manager Pavel Susak in 2010 as we were hoping to organise an European Sales Meeting. At the time, I was also in touch with a number of other conference organisers, looking for the best offer. Unfortunately, due to the economic crisis, the Sales Meeting was postponed. So when I needed to find a partner to help organise a three-day Sales Meeting for over a 100 attendees in 2011, C-IN sprang to mind. I remembered Pavel and his super-efficient, friendly and accommodating attitude, so it was natural to get in touch with him again. He had obviously made an impression and I was not disappointed.

From the very first contact and correspondence, it was clear that C-IN were highly professional and knew what they were doing. We were presented with three good proposals and travelled to Prague to meet Pavel and visit the three hotel options, all suitable and within our requirements. We were well looked after - C-IN's friendly and personal service and attention was impeccable - nothing was too much trouble.

C-IN were responsible not only in helping us with hotel accommodation and meeting facilities but they also helped with arranging a social evening with a local flavour, food menus, shipping of demo equipment, travel to and from the hotel and a range of other things, too numerous to mention. Our demands were not always straightforward and there were a lot of last minute changes and extra requirements along the way, but each demand was met with patience and a positive attitude. When we tagged on an extra conference to take place in the same venue on the two days preceding our Sales Meeting and for some of the same attendees, the logistics became very complicated. However, our Project Manager Karel Jezek took it all in his stride and got the job done.

Karel was present and available during the whole five days and ready to take on any job or challenge - great or small.

The feedback from the attendees was overwhelmingly positive with everyone praising the level of professionalism and service provided by Karel and the hotel staff, ensuring the smooth running of our event.

It was a joy to work with C-IN and I highly recommend them. Indeed, I would not hesitate to work with them again should the occasion arise in the future.

Dear Daniel.
It is my sincere pleasure to send you this letter commending the performance of you, your colleagues, and C-IN during our 22nd Annual Meeting and Scientific Sessions in April, 2012, at the Prague Congress Centre. From the beginnings of our interactions with you, your charming colleagues, and your company, through the planning process, the implementation process, and the final wrap-up, we experienced nothing but professionalism, competence, and a willingness to assist us in identifying and solving problems, to provide suggestions and alternatives, and to execute in a timely manner upon the final decisions made.

I have been involved in the planning and production of international congresses for our organization since 1992, in cities as diverse as London, Paris, Madrid, Vienna and Osaka, and I can state without qualification that the service you provided in helping to produce and deliver our meeting in Prague was by far superior to that we have experienced in any other city or at any other venue. You are all to be commended for your excellent work ethic, skill, and professionalism.

It was a great pleasure to work with all of you, and I hope we can soon return to Prague for our meeting and work with your again.

Please feel free to distribute this letter to any future customers considering engaging your services. I would be pleased to provide a verbal reference by telephone as well.

With all best wishes for the remainder of the year,

The Covid-19 pandemic crisis has hit us like a storm, catching most of us unprepared in many ways.

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.

During this uneasy time of the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, the meetings industry, amongst many others, is taking a hard hit.
