This is a gentle reminder about the wraparound activities/services around the 5thannual QICF 2014. Registration deadline is tomorrow, 19th September 2014.
We are glad to offer different packages covering logistics*, direct marketing**, business development and social & cultural activities. Institutions are granted the flexibility to opt for any package or activity that suits their needs.
* QICF 2014 will take place at the Qatar National Convention Centre (QNCC), which is located outside the Doha City Centre with limited reliable public transportation links and limited availability of Taxis at QNCC. The Supreme Education Council (SEC) will be offering limited logistical support to participants with no accommodation. Therefore, the logistics package is developed to ensure efficient access for UK institutions to the exhibition venue. Please note that we managed to negotiate very good corporate rates with a 5 star hotel, located in Al-Sadd Area, the nearest hotel district to QNCC, in October which is a high season in Qatar.
** It was noticed last year that there was no mention of participating institution names in any of the marketing activities conducted by the SEC. With more than 90 participating institutions, it was difficult to get visibility of individual institutions; hence, poor attendance. This year, we are offering direct marketing packages to raise UK institutions presence/profile in the College Fair. The direct marketing packages are built on the basis of multiple institutions sharing the services mentioned in the package unless otherwise mentioned.
The detailed packages can be found in the enclosed file.
