Verisure
On May 16, 600 successful team members of security company Verisure attended the company’s corporate sales convention at Teatro del Maggio Musicale Fiorentino. MasterSales is held every year in a different city in Italy and Firenze Convention Bureau played its part by supporting the organizers. The decision to hold the 2023 edition in Florence was both geographically strategic for guests arriving from all over the country and part of a territorial marketing and brand awareness campaign. The partners that contributed to the event organization include StudioVisio, SSD LAB, Gerist and DETTAGLI. Verisure Managing Director Stefan Konrad explained what lay behind the company’s success in 2022, and basketball champion and Olympic silver medal winner Julio Velasco delivered a keynote speech about the importance of teamwork.
AWC 2023
From July 9 to 11, around 200 association leaders, event strategists, international professional, business and scientific associations, societies and federations will gather at Firenze Fiera for Associations World Congress 2023. Florence’s bid to secure Europe’s most attended conference by destination promotion association leaders and executives was developed by Firenze Fiera, the event’s main sponsor, in collaboration with the host destinations sponsor Firenze Convention Bureau and OIC Group. The congress is organized by Damian Hutt, Executive Director of the Association of Association Executives.
CIPA
From June 25-30, CIPA 2023 will take place in Florence as researchers, professionals and site managers attend a congress aimed at documenting, understanding and preserving cultural heritage. CIPA was founded in 1968 by ICOMOS (International Council of Monuments and Sites) and ISPRS (International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing) to facilitate the transfer of technology from the measurement sciences into the heritage documentation and recording disciplines. The bid to lock down the event was won thanks to the collaboration of Firenze Convention Bureau and promoted by Professor Grazia Tucci of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering of the University of Florence. Appointed as Symposium Director, Prof. Grazia Tucci received a Florence Ambassadors Award in 2022 and is a member of the Firenze Advisory Board. AIM Group is the organizing secretariat.
