BASEL LIFE 2018
BASEL LIFE is Europe’s leading congress in the Life Sciences, a showcase for the latest developments in science and technology. The event is held in Basel, a city at the heart of Europe’s Life Sciences community. This year, this very successful event was held from 11 to 14 September, welcoming over two-thousand participants.
The Challenge
How to Organise Four Conferences Under One Roof: BASEL LIFE is one conference which consists of four different events, or pillars:
- A Conference for Basic Research (EMBO)
- Forums for Applied Research and Development (Innovation Forums)
- An exhibition showcasing state-of-the art technology (MipTec)
- A recruitment event for Life Sciences companies (Job Fair)
These four separate events required particular attention and had to be handled individually. At the same time, we wanted to create a unified congress atmosphere.
How Congrex mastered it
To handle such a broad range of subjects we drew up a detailed 4-in-1 concept with customised solutions for each area. A professional and versatile team made this possible. Our staff worked quickly and flexibly, and always with a positive attitude. Within the four events we were able to accommodate different participant needs. The interaction between these elements led to fruitful exchanges between the delegates and unique networking opportunities.
What our Clients says
“BASEL LIFE 2018 was once again a platform of excellence, where specialists in fundamental research and applied science from all over the world met to discuss and to follow top level key notes and symposiums. The Congrex team did a very professional job to organize the venue and to support participants during the three days. They always had an answer and they never lost their smile. BASEL LIFE profited of many improvements implemented by the Congrex team which e.g. helped participants to better interact, or to profit of the industry exhibition..”
