Hear what some of our clients and partners are saying about us:

Jay Copan
Executive Director, LNG 17 (17th International Conference & Exhibition on Liquefied Natural Gas)


"I am extremely pleased to recommend the CWC Group as a Professional Conference Organizer (PCO). In the process of developing our plans for LNG 17, we determined that the most efficient, most productive, and ultimately what will be the most successful means of conducting this event would be to hire a PCO.

Over a period of time our criteria became apparent. We needed / wanted a firm that knew the global energy industry. We needed / wanted a firm that understood both sales and marketing, and knew how to attract the absolute maximum levels of participation. We needed / wanted a firm with the enthusiasm, attention to detail, work ethic and corporate culture that would ensure the success of our event. And, overall, we needed / wanted a firm that we would enjoy working with over the three year period that preparation of this event requires. In essence, we needed / wanted a firm that we could be "family" with.

We interviewed many marketing firms, event planning firms and a number of PCOs. We had a very deliberative, extensive and exhaustive process. At the end of the day, we made the decision to hire the CWC Group. We have not regretted that decision for a minute, and in fact, virtually every day we are more and more convinced that we made exactly the right decision. In every instance our high expectations have been surpassed. We would unequivocally recommend hiring the CWC Group." 

 

Eduardo Ojea Quintana
Chairman, National Organising Committee, 24th World Gas Conference


"The 24th World Gas Conference (WGC) was held in Buenos Aires, Argentina, during October 5-9, 2009, under the auspices of the International Gas Union (IGU).

The conference gathered over 3,500 attendees from 83 countries, including energy ministers, senior oil and gas executives, researchers, journalists and students. The event also included a commercial exhibition of 30,000 m2, with 270 stands of key energy players from 81 countries.

For the planning, preparation and execution of the 24th WGC, the National Organising Committee from Argentina was supported by a joint-venture composed of The CWC Group (United Kingdom) and MCI Group (Argentina), two leading Professional Congress Organisers (PCOs) which were selected through an international tender process in 2005.

The service provided by CWC and MCI – comprising permanent support in the overall planning, marketing and management of both the conference and the exhibition; interaction with the speakers, delegates, press representatives and exhibitors; and full responsibility for the handling of all the necessary logistics - was highly professional and effective, and contributed decisively to what was widely recognised as a successful outcome of the 24th WGC.

We will gladly provide additional insights on the qualifications and performance of the above mentioned PCOs upon specific request."
