Accommodation
Accommodation:

The Congress Secretariat (International Conference Services) is the official housing bureau and will offer assistance with the coordination of housing requirements for the Congress. Special room rates have been negotiated and will be available to Congress delegates only.

The success of the FIGO World Congress depends on delegates, sponsors and exhibitors using the official Congress hotels by booking through the official housing bureau. FIGO cannot meet contracted room obligations if registrants reserve rooms outside the official hotels or book hotels through channels other than the official housing bureau. Rooms that are not filled through the official housing bureau create an expense for the Congress in the form of financial penalties (attrition fees) and place the financial success of the Congress and the Association at risk.
