Congrex is firmly in the leading position when it comes to delivering international association meetings according to the association database of ICCA (International Congress & Convention Association).
In total, Congrex delivered 125 qualifying association congresses over the past six years, significantly more than any other PCO company.
According to the ICCA Association Database, during the period 2000 to 2005, Congrex delivered 39 large international congresses with a participation of over 2,000 participants, totalling over 200,000 participants.
Congrex is not only focusing on large and medium sized congresses. During the past six years, Congrex delivered several hundred smaller congresses.
Most of these were national congresses and are not included in the ICCA database, but with 11 international congresses with up to 250 participants, Congrex is in the lead in this segment as well.
