Georgia Menti Returns as Vice President

We are thrilled to announce the return of Georgia Menti to CONVIN S.A. in her new role as Vice President. With over two decades of unparalleled expertise in congress organization and event management, Georgia's return marks a significant milestone for our company as we embark on a journey to reach new heights of success.

Georgia's journey with CONVIN began years ago when she first joined as Congress Director, where her exceptional leadership and dedication played a pivotal role in shaping the company's success. Her extensive experience and strategic vision have been instrumental in driving initiatives that redefine excellence in event management.

Prior to rejoining CONVIN, Georgia honed her skills during her tenure as P.R. & Medical Events Manager at GlaxoSmithKline Greece, where she mastered the art of project management and cultivated strong customer relationships over a decade. Her leadership was further solidified during her time as Managing Director at Novella Event Management Company in Dubai, where she spearheaded numerous successful seminars and events for disease awareness campaigns.

Now, as Vice President of CONVIN S.A., Georgia brings with her a wealth of knowledge, a passion for innovation, and a commitment to excellence. Her return signifies a new chapter for our company as we strive to push boundaries, exceed expectations, and take CONVIN to the next level.

Fueling Innovation: CONVIN Stands with NROBOGEN's Robotics Initiative

We are excited to introduce you to NROBOGEN, a robotics team from Amfilochia. Comprised of five talented individuals - Vasilis, Theodoris, Maria, Christos, and their coach Charalambos - NROBOGEN has consistently ranked among the top five teams in Greece at the FIRST LEGO League Robotics and Innovation Competition, organized annually by Eduact.

Every year, children aged 9 to 16 from all over the world are invited to find innovative solutions to global challenges. This year's theme focuses on hobbies and the arts.

After conducting research within their community, NROBOGEN discovered a significant interest in hiking and found ancient trails in Amfilochia that were previously unexplored.

Their initiative began by meeting with locals familiar with these trails, cleaning them up, and mapping them out. They then designed signage using Canva and marked the trails on Google for easy accessibility by visitors. Currently, they are in the process of creating the "City Trails" website, which will host not only Amfilochia's trails but potentially those of the entire municipality in the future. All of this has been accomplished through their hard work and personal funds.

This year, NROBOGEN's third-place win has earned them a ticket to the World Finals, where they will represent Greece in Bodo, Norway, from May 13th to 18th. 

Their innovative project for the Bodo competition is the "City Trail Tap" - a 3D-printed device, costing only €1.5, equipped with an NFC sensor. Placed along the trails, it aims to make the experience interactive, dividing information into five categories: Orange Tap - Route Information, Yellow Tap - Trail History, Blue Tap - Local Animals, Green Tap - Local Flora, and Pink Tap - Ideal Photo Spot. Visitors can simply tap their mobile phones on the corresponding City Trail Tap to access relevant information.

CONVIN is proud to support NROBOGEN in their endeavors and look forward to witnessing their success at the World Finals. Let's rally behind these young innovators and help them achieve their dreams!

Congress Season Update 

CONVIN is thrilled to announce the successful implementation of six congresses as part of the ongoing congress season. From the 18th Pan-Hellenic Congress on Obesity to the 1st INTOCUS International Conference, each event has been a testament to our commitment to knowledge exchange and collaboration.

The recent congresses have provided invaluable platforms for experts and professionals to address pressing issues such as obesity, tourism, heritage, pediatric rheumatology, metabolic bone diseases, and pediatric neurology. Through engaging discussions and innovative strategies, we continue to strive for excellence in advancing healthcare and scientific research.

As we look ahead, CONVIN remains dedicated to facilitating dialogue, fostering innovation, and driving positive change in our respective fields.
