ADVA Optical Networking organizes its flagship event “The Munich Symposium” once a year. It is an annual two-day conference which attracts over 250 participants – a mix of partners and end-customers – from across the globe.
The Challenge
The event logistics include but are not confined to booking venues, accommodation, transportation, handling registrations and special requirements, coordinating speakers and implementing an event itinerary the combines workshops, presentations, and entertainment. The target audience is the company’s channels, partners and end customers.
As “The Munich Symposium” is an event that requires the management of a multitude of different elements, the following points were identified as the main challenges:
- Fast & efficient creation of an event website with a custom registration form that can be easily updated as the event program develops;
- Managing registrations and changes;
- Clear tracking and report of all event components (accommodation, optional workshops, dinners, car parking requirements, etc.).
The solution

Registration data, as well as changes to existing registrations, were easily monitored and tracked. Advanced search and
