Hello,
This year, the Associations World Congress & Expois held in the beautiful city of Gothenburg (with its own archipelago!) in Sweden on 7 - 9 April. As a subscriber to HQ, use the code HQ10 and receive a discount of 10% on your Congress Pass.
See how we've embraced the importance of education for association leaders, association events strategists and other executives, with extensive and concentrated learning at the heart of the congress, whilst retaining an enjoyable programme.
Just to let you know there's still budget flights available throughout Europe to Gothenburg, along with a discount at the Congress hotel. You don't have to worry about drinks and dinner when you come because there's receptions and hosted dinners on Sunday night and the congress dinner on Monday night. It's a low cost to travel & stay for the great value you receive and effect on your association from what you learn.
