Why do I need a PCO to organize my meeting?
Your Professional Conference Organizer is both a logistical administrator and a personal advisor at every step of the planning, organization, execution and follow up of your successful conference. From finding the ideal venue to locating appropriate sponsors your PCO has the knowledge and contacts to assure you meet your goals. From dealing with A/V or lighting installations, security, insurance, delegate movements and accommodation, we have the experience and the negotiating leverage to save you money while meeting your deadlines. In short: your PCO leaves you free to focus on content, keynote speakers and the program agenda.
