Our services

At Runmate, we organise impactful and creative conferences, congresses, and trade show experiences that inform, inspire, and connect. From concept development and event organisation to content programming, communication, and Destination Management (DMC) – we provide a comprehensive approach tailored to your goals.

How we work

1. Concept Development

What is the purpose and theme of your congress? Runmate helps you develop a strong concept that aligns with your target audience and strategic objectives.

2. Financial Management

In addition to knowledge sharing, a congress can also contribute to fundraising or the growth of your organisation. We ensure efficient budget management and smart sponsorship strategies to make your event profitable.

3. Planning

A congress requires 6 to 12 months of preparation. Runmate ensures a strict retro-planning and a detailed roadmap so that everything – from setup to teardown – runs smoothly and professionally.
