Regional Council of Lapland has organized the FEM Conferences since 1999. Nowadays FEM is one of the largest and most significant mineral industry events in Europe. FEM aims to promote and develop extracting industry regionally and globally. The biannual event includes world-class presentations by invited speakers, pre-conference short courses, a trade show, and excursions. FEM brings together exploration and mining industry experts and leaders worldwide. Since 2011 the number of delegates has been over 1000. There is a separate bidding for FEM conference services each time it is organized. Rovaniemi-Lapland Congresses (RLC) has won the bidding for every FEM so far. RLC has handled among others conference registrations, hotel bookings, trade show bookings and all incoming payments. All the arrangements have been handled with high professionalism. The feedback from conference delegates has been very positive. Regional Council of Lapland recommends Rovaniemi-Lapland Congresses services for any event organizers. FEM conferences have been organized in 1999, 2001, 2003, 2005, 2007, 2009, 2011, 2013, 2015, 2017. Riitta Muhojoki FEM Project Manager, Regional Council of Lapland
Together with Rovaniemi-Lapland Congresses, we organised an international conference Sex & Capital in June 2015 at the University of Lapland. There were over 300 participants, so there was a lot of work to do for a long period of time. Without Marja-Leena’s (Porsanger) and Kaisa’s (Juupaluoma) amazing know-how and professionalism we would have been in trouble many times. The planning, implementation and aftermath of the conference were handled energetically, efficiently and with experience. The participants have praised it to have been the best organised conference they ever attended, for which we can only thank the congresses service. We warmly recommend the service!

The work of the congress office in organising the world summit was outstanding. Before the event, the organisation was meticulous, every detail was attended to by Rovaniemi-Lapland Congresses. During the months leading up to the event, the staff were a source of great support and advice to us on the academic committee. During the event, everything ran extremely smoothly; helpful staff always on hand, arrangements for speakers, accommodation, transport, tours and catering. I have been involved in arranging many conferences in different countries and the feedback from our delegates was extremely positive. Delegates from all over the world left the University of Lapland with great memories of a very successful summit, I am happy to recommend the congress office.
