Rovaniemi-Lapland Congresses has handled the organisation of FEM conferences (Fennoscandian Exploration and Mining) in Rovaniemi in years 1999, 2001, 2003, 2005, 2007, 2009, 2011, 2013 and 2015. The organisation of these international science conferences has been highly professional. The conference delegates represent nearly all continents and most of the European countries. All the arrangements have been made according to the agreed schedules and plans and the conference organising committee has been able to influence all solutions, large and small, according to its wishes. The conference budgets have been managed according to plans. The feedback from conference delegates has been very positive. The Regional Council of Lapland is very satisfied with the services of Rovaniemi-Lapland Congresses.

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.
