Without being too forward, let me put it this way:

PCO = Professional Congress Organizer

In short, it refers to a management company like us. However, when we surveyed our friends from other industries, it seems that the majority of them are unfamiliar with this term!

Especially for events such as large international conferences and academic symposia, professional planning and coordination are essential. This is where the “Professional Congress Organizer (PCO)” comes in.
