From Rescue Mission to Strategic Partnership: Kuoni Tumlare Congress & DrupalCon Europe - A Success Story
Remember those stressful conference logistics?
The Drupal Association, the masterminds behind a popular free content management system, does. After years of financial strain managing their European event in-house, they sought a PCO (Professional Congress Organizer) to tackle operational and financial hurdles while preserving the conference's cherished culture.
That's where Kuoni Tumlare Congress stepped in, in 2019. With our expertise and extensive European reach, we've been their trusted partner, handling everything from finances and registrations, sponsorships and program management to on-site logistics and communication. But it wasn't just about flawless execution (though we delivered that too!).
"Come for the code, stay for the community," as the Drupal world says. We understood the event's core values - fostering connections, knowledge sharing, and inclusivity within the open-source community. Our goal? Become a strategic partner and an integral member of the Drupal family, not just a service provider.
The Drupal Association couldn't have said it better:
"The Drupal Association has cherished our partnership with Kuoni Tumlare Congress since 2019. What started as an experiment has grown into a trusted relationship. Kuoni’s expertise, commitment, and sincerity have been essential for the Drupal community, contributing to the success of DrupalCon Europe as the premier event it is today."
