International Events Management

Academic and research units which are considering to host international events are welcome to contact OAL and discuss how the International Events Team could be of assistance.

Service Scope
The International Events Team at OAL provides events management and consultancy services to assist academic and research units in planning and organising conferences on campus. The scope of services range from arrangement of venue, accommodation, catering and transportation to the setting up of website and registration system, design and production of printing materials and conference items, and on-site support. Support service for compilation of conference proposals for bidding of international conferences is also offered.
In line with the original mandate of the team, it primarily assists in events with about one-third of the participants from overseas institutions. Priority will be given to events without access to assistance from dedicated administrative staff member(s) and/or an external agency. Besides, events with prior registration and a higher possibility of securing a larger portion of overseas participants will be supported with priority.
Details of the international events management services are listed below:

Support service for compilation of conference proposals by providing information on CUHK and its attractiveness as a conference host is provided. Upon successful bidding of the conference, the organising unit is required to pay a service fee of HK$6,000 or to subscribe to services of not less than this amount. No charge will be levied for unsuccessful bids.
