Four Decades of Delivering World-Class Congresses
Over the past 40 years, we have supported some of the world’s most significant professional gatherings, helping our partners transform ambitious ideas into well-executed, high-performing congresses.
As we celebrate this milestone, we reflect not only on where we have come from, but on how we continue to evolve in an ever-changing congress landscape.
A Track Record Defined by Collaboration
For four decades, we have worked alongside associations and institutions to simplify complexity and deliver clarity at every stage of the process. From strategic planning to on-site execution, our approach has always centred on partnership, trust and long-term relationships.
The result is a portfolio of congresses that have strengthened industries, advanced research and fostered meaningful professional exchange.
Driving Value for Industries and Destinations
When international delegates gather, they contribute to local economies, support hospitality networks and generate visibility for host cities. Accommodation providers, technical teams, transport services and cultural venues all benefit from the ripple effect of a well-delivered event.
As Vanessa Reis, Head of the Zürich Convention Bureau, explains:
“Smooth participant management processes are the key to successful congresses. With Kuoni Tumlare Congress at our side, we can offer organisers real added value.”
Our objective has always been to create congresses that deliver long-term value – not only for organisers and delegates, but for destinations and communities alike.
Powered by People
Many of our colleagues have been with us for 15, 20 or even 25 years. Their experience, professionalism and commitment ensure consistency, quality and continuity across projects. This depth of expertise enables us to navigate complexity with confidence and maintain the high standards our partners expect.
It is the dedication of our people that has shaped our first 40 years - and it is their expertise that will define the decades ahead.
Shaping the Future of Congress - A Shared Achievement
The congress sector continues to evolve. Digital integration, sustainability priorities and rising strategic expectations are redefining how events are designed and delivered.
In response, we continue to adapt - investing in technology, refining our processes and strengthening global partnerships to ensure we remain a trusted, long-term collaborator for associations worldwide.
As part of this continued evolution, we have introduced our new Kuoni Tumlare Congress website, offering a clearer overview of our services, global presence and specialist expertise.
While we look ahead, this anniversary also marks a collective achievement.

To our suppliers and destination partners – thank you for your collaboration.
And to our teams across the world – thank you for your professionalism and dedication.
For 40 years, we have connected people, ideas and industries across borders.
And we look forward to shaping the next chapter together.
