Congresses

Bidding Requirements

Today, the European Association of Nuclear Medicine (EANM) counts more than 20.000 members. The institutional congress of the association welcomes around 7,000 participants from all over Europe, the United States and many other countries on an annual basis.

EANM has a permanent secretariat in Vienna.
The Congress Manager of the EANM is responsible for organising the Annual Congress. Congress organisation is conducted in-house, with some help from preferred and long-term contracted suppliers for abstract handling, registration/housing/social programme, A/V, graphics, printing, freight forwarding etc. Local PCOs, DMCs or other agencies are not used.

At the moment, no bidding process takes place. Venues are booked until the year 2028.

icon_guideline_pur Guidelines for bidding


  • The request for a proposal will be sent to all members of the EANM. These may contact their Convention Bureaus or the applicable congress centre for assistance with submitting the proposals.
  • EANM has set up a professional secretariat in Vienna to organise the congresses of the Association on their own. Therefore, proposals by “Professional Congress Organizers” (PCOs) and “Destination Management Companies” (DMCs) or other agencies will NOT be accepted.
  • To base our decision on objective criteria, we have assembled questions that we ask you to answer in the order given.
  • As the EANM is trying to organise its congresses as “Green Meetings”, we are assessing the environmental awareness of the destinations we choose and have incorporated a few questions concerning this subject.
