"Do I really have an hour and a half?" And indeed, our guest speaker Dionne Annink needed that time this morning! Her walkthrough of the points from the Code of Conduct for Pharmaceutical Advertising (CGR), relevant to congress organizers and venues, sparked a lively discussion with the audience.
What is the responsibility of a congress organizer and what isn’t? With a number of practical examples and plenty of questions from the audience, Dionne clarified the issue. She emphasized that it's not an exact science and needs to be viewed in the overall context, making it a challenge that will remain, even after this knowledge booster session.
In addition to thanking our speaker, we also want to thank our venue! For this session, we were hosted by the Ernst Sillem Hoeve, a YOIN-certified location with a strong background in socially responsible and sustainable business practices, which our participants learned about during a brief tour.
Lastly, good news from Dineke Philipse, YOIN Coordinator. In the first half of 2024, we will start certifying YOIN Erkend Congresbureau! Would you like to know what that entails? Send us a message at info@erkendcongresbureau.nl!
