🌟 Excited to roll up my sleeves and get hands-on at the ESCMID - European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases 2024 conference this week! As CEO, my days are typically filled with strategic planning, financial juggling and meetings, but there's nothing like getting out of the office and into the action. Alongside my fantastic colleagues Ritu Priya, and Stefan Gildenberg, I'm manning the exhibition help desk, diving into the hustle and bustle of setup alongside our dedicated Congrex Switzerland team. Over 250 exhibitors are counting on us for logistical magic. Big thank you to ESCMID Simone Brüderli and Carla M. Seiler for their trust in Congrex and our seamless collaboration. Oh, and did I mention we're also the masterminds behind registration and housing for 17,000+ participants? Just another day in the life of event management! Let's do this 💪 #CongrexFamily #TeamSpirit #CEOLife
