A very interesting event to learn from other associations about successes and challenges.
A perfect place to ensure we are keeping ahead of the curve. I can’t wait till next time.
A valuable experience allowed me to reflect on the work of our association and strategize ways to enhance our efforts in line with our mission.
The sessions were exceptionally intriguing and motivating.
The programme content is very enriching and I've always left with valuable ideas to take back to my organisation. The AWC is easily becoming my favourite event to attend.
I excitedly took away amazing ideas to respond to real issues I face every day.
A great learning and networking opportunity, to share good practices with peers and hear about the latest innovations.
This was my first time attending the Associations Congress and it did not disappoint. It was well organized and offered informative sessions with excellent speakers and case studies.
The executive skills training was impressive - although I've been speaking last 30 years, I learned so much!
I thought it was a fantastic event, very well run and the learning was great.
It has a very interesting format, gifted speakers, and is pushing new frontiers.
I was really impressed. All details made it perfect: the warm welcome from the suppliers, dinner hosts and fellow associations, and then the professionalism of the organizers.
A fantastic event, not only for learning , building relationships and sharing knowledge, but for personal growth too.
