About Conventus

At the end of the day, I feel snug as a bug in a rug, in Jena and Thuringia.

I was 21 years old when Conventus was founded in spring 2000, and I have been active as Managing Director since 2002, after I graduated in business administration.

Today, I see it as my greatest privilege to be together with my extended family "Conventus" every day, that the job is constantly full of excitement, that the clients and specialist areas always open up new worlds in terms of content, and that we also get to know almost half the world geographically.

The more difficult the task, the more exciting the solution!

By doing good work, supporting non-profit societies and conference management in terms of content, relieving the strain on time and contributing to their success, if this is recognised and, at best, of course, also rewarded financially, I am happy!

About 25 years ago, as an event manager and marketing director of a 5Star conference hotel, I became enthusiastic about the network of science and industry, and in particular about event and congress organisation.

In 1998 I turned this experience into the conception of a congress agency. In 2000, our agency "Conventus Congressmanagement & Marketing GmbH" was launched, and today we have around 150 employees.

We have taken friends along on this exciting journey, with our enthusiasm we have infected many lateral and also many newcomers to the family with the congress virus.    

I am grateful and happy.
