We have been working with Promo Sciences since 2001 as they have been organising our FEMISE Annual Conference. The FEMISE conference that Promo Sciences organises every year has a great deal of complexity. To add to the complexity of our conference organisation, these conferences are organised in a different country every year. Promo Sciences have proven across the years that they are more than capable of excelling in this heavy and complicated task. From the day we agree on the venue until all documents are completed and delivered after the event, Mrs Viviane Bernadac gives proof of high professionalism, a great quality of service, attention to small details, a lot of enthusiasm and energy but in a relaxed and cheerful way. She listens carefully to all requirements, handles all details (big or small) carefully and meticulously from finding the best hotels/venue to host the event or the most economic (but comfortable) routing for all participants' travel arrangements, to the position of the speakers, the screen and the lightening at the conference venue or the choice of menus or places for dinners, transport, ... Promo Sciences works with an impressive professionalism, efficiency and attention to the details that is required with such a high level events. At the same time, they are very resourceful and have expertise in terms of handling difficult or tense situation which is sometimes unavoidable in such large events.
