Collaboration

Whether you’re bidding to bring your organisation’s conference to Edinburgh, or you’re soon to begin planning your conference, we can provide you with the support and expertise to make the process easier and more successful.

Organising a conference is a collaborative process. Having been in operation for 30 years, we have a well-established network of trusted suppliers and city partners that we work with to produce brilliant conferences, here at the EICC. 

We’re well-connected with Edinburgh's industry and academia, so if you would like to explore some local inspiration to enrich your event, then we would be delighted to help.  

To find out how we can support you on your planning journey then visit our Organising and Visiting pages.

Legacy

Conferences serve as powerful catalysts for societal progress. At the EICC we are committed to empowering you to create a meaningful impact both locally and globally. Here are a few examples.

EICC Live.  Take advantage of EICC Live, our series of free public talks, and host one alongside your conference programme.  It's a great opportunity to collaborate with local industry and to widen the reach of your message.  We will take care of the logistics and promote it for you.

Sustainability.  We're passionate about making a positive impact, so we've established relationships with a few sustainability heroes which help us in achieving that, and which your conference can benefit from too. For example, we can assist with donating any surplus delegate materials to local schools and communities, which are in need of resources.

Impact Reports.  We will record the environmental, societal and economic impact of your event and provide you with a comprehensive report afterwards.

For more ideas on how to create an impact with your event visit EICC's Impact Network.

We're proud to work with our city's universities and local health service as part of the Exchange Initiative Advisory Board.
