WHO ATTENDS
The sessions were very valuable and relevant. Lots of global benchmarks to compare against!
Simply the best personal and professional development I've had in a while. Over the two days, I learned from excellent leaders, networked with suppliers, and enjoyed the very best hospitality.
I took away a lot of inspiration with me for our association. The format of multiple workshops is great. Mutual support and discussing cases and questions in a very kind and secure space was very helpful.
A great success. I got key information from speakers and discussed opportunities with service providers. Networking with colleagues from other associations and attending specific sessions for medical associations was of great value. The hospitality and the organization were perfect.
It is always good to step out of the 'BAU' and spend time with peers to listen, connect, learn and be inspired to consider new ideas, ways of working or opportunities. The congress is an excellent opportunity to do all these things - and learn about a new destination too.
The sessions were relevant, interesting, and with excellent and engaging speakers. It was also good to meet with my peers and share experiences about events in the current climate, as well as sponsorship and membership acquisition.
Thank you, AAE for a fantastic Congress. I've come away inspired by the talented session leaders and have met many wonderful people. The great tips, ideas, and lessons learnt is a testament to the spirit of collaboration!
I thoroughly enjoyed the event. An excellent opportunity to reconnect with old and new peers, and gain valuable insights into the latest event and sponsor management trends.
A meaningful experience that I highly recommend. The diverse range of topics, expert speakers, and networking opportunities provided excellent insights into the current trends and future directions. The interactive sessions with case studies were particularly beneficial. It really was a great opportunity to expand knowledge and connections.
A great opportunity to learn from the successes and failures of various initiatives. The sessions generated a lot of food for thought, all very useful to bring back to work, to initiate positive change, and to improve efficiency and impact.
During the sessions, which were very active and engaging, I learned things to improve membership engagement, attraction and retention. The generous support from other Delegates during the case studies was extremely useful and gratefully received.
A very educational conference. I went last year and yet again they impressed me with their high quality engaging sessions. I look forward to next year's conference.
Interesting sessions, very relevant and inspiring for us. Learned a lot from case studies and exchanging experiences and ideas with peers. Friendly and supportive environment - and lots of fun!
As ever, top-quality educational sessions, intelligently organized to give ample time and space for valuable discussions with colleagues.
I thoroughly enjoyed the meeting; it was incredibly valuable to connect with colleagues from other organizations. Sharing our common challenges and collaboratively finding suggestions for improvements and solutions was extremely beneficial. I came away with several concrete actions that I am already working on implementing within my organization. In summary, the days were immensely rewarding.
"Hamburg is a city where the tradition of networking and connecting with people from all over the world is firmly anchored.
It is therefore a great pleasure and honour for Hamburg and the entire MICE community to host the Associations World Congress for the first time.
We look forward to making new connections and would like to invite participants to be surprised by the opportunities Hamburg has to offer. "
