Call for valiant volunteers!
IABES is
seeking offers for hosting the next International Conference of
Butterfly Exhibitors & Suppliers (ICBES) in 2014.
For
more information about hosting a conference, please contact Gerlinde
Blaese, chairman, IABES Conference Committee, at mgblaese@web.de.
The deadline for
proposal submissions is 15 June 2012
|
| A proposal should outline the proposed
structure of the conference (pre-conference tour, days for the conference,
post conference tour, if any), hotel accommodations, approximate
cost to attend the conference and accompanying living expenses (hotels,
unincluded meals, etc.). The proposed format is 4 days conference,
2 days of discussions and 2 days of local sightseeing. The the post-conference
is purely cultural, historical, etc.
The conference committee would need to have sufficient
information to weigh the respective proposals. Specifically:
- Dates
- Proposed conference program: pre-conference, conference and
if there is one, post-conference.
- What would a trip to to the proposed place have to offer
delegates aside from the conference itself?
- Estimated costs. (We can provide an Excel spreadsheet that
may help you in this regard by separating fixed and variable
expenses).
- Hotel and its related costs.
- Capacity for at least 75 delegates.
IABES can help out with advice and communications (invitations and
ICBES marketing in the Flutterings, etc.).
