What is P.C.O.(Professional Congress Organizer)?
It is a commercial enterprise that handles all kinds of work in
connection with congresses. In Europe, there are P.C.O.s which
have a long history. In Japan also, in recent years, several companies
have launched a P.C.O. business and have attained considerable
achievements. World Meeting Corp. is no exception. As a P.C.O.
having the travel department as well, we have helped in organizing
and operating both national and international congresses.
By making the most of the service provided by a P.C.O., we believe
the doctors hosting the international congresses can lessen the
energy of the staff-wise and time-wise.
The function of P.C.O. can be summarized as follows:
- Overall consulting work in connection with organizing and operating
congresses
- Make and manage congress budget
- Assist in financing and fund-raising work
- Congress secretariat work-make correspondences, administer registration
and abstracts
- Assist in operating preparatory committee and make minutes of
the meetings
- Public relations and promotion
- Make announcement, program and other printed materials
- Plan and organize social events ( Reception, Banquet, etc. )
- Arrange and administer Congress operations staff members
- Make or arrange AV equipments, sign boards, etc.
World Meeting Corp.'s work as a travel agent widely ranges as
follows:
- Arrange and book hotel rooms
- Organize accompanying person's program, excursion and optional
tours during the session
- Arrange travel before and after the Congress
- Make documents for entry visa
- Arrange and book air tickets
As explained above, World Meeting Corp. offers overall assistance
for the success of the congress.
