Achievements via Taskforce activity

 
  • Continued lobbying over the pricing structure of sponsorship at international meetings has contributed to a substantial relative reduction in contract fees for major sponsors (and others), over a number of years 

  • Transparency of organisers’ congress budgets is singled out in IPCAA’s Guidelines and continues to be one of the Association’s main objectives. It is nowadays, as a result, normal to see some form of pre- and post-event budget information shared with industry sponsors 

  • Sponsorship structures have been simplified for most major congresses following negotiation between organisers and IPCAA task forces  

  • Advance consultation with potential sponsors on matters such as venue is now an established routine for most major meetings; particularly important since regulatory conditions restrict the choice of locations. Issues of logistics, security etc also impact on sponsor views of a destination, resulting in movement to an alternative on several past occasions
