🖼️ Honoring Geneva’s Local Ambassadors at the MAMCO Our Geneva Convention Bureau team had the privilege to welcome local ambassadors and representatives of the key local academic institutions of Geneva during a special event at the Modern and Contemporary Art Museum (MAMCO).   The MAMCO is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, and in 2025 it will begin renovations lasting at least three years. During the event, our guests had the opportunity to discover the exhibition "MAMCO, from memory", before its temporary closing.   Our local ambassadors are essential in developing Geneva as a successful congress destination with a rich ecosystem and expertise. We would like to thank all of them for being present at this event and for their continuous support. #VisitGeneva #GenevaCVB #MAMCO

🌱🩺Nature Conservation and Mental Health in Geneva In the last few weeks, 2 impactful conferences took place in Geneva focusing on topics of societal importance: nature conservation and innovation for dementia. During three days, inspiring leaders met at Palexpo for the IUCN Leaders Forum. After a successful edition in 2023 in Geneva, IUCN once again organised an impactful and outstanding event to find solutions to tackle global environnemental challenges. At the same time, the 34th Alzheimer Europe Conference took place at the CICG - International Conference Centre Geneva with 963 delegates from 42 countries. This conference was unique by its format: it brought together people with dementia, carers, researchers, healthcare and social professionals with different perspectives but one common goal: improve the quality of life of people with dementia. Our Geneva Convention Bureau was delighted to support the organisers of these two conferences. #VisitGeneva #GenevaCVB #IUCNLeadersForum #34AEC #EventProfs
