Around Klewel

What do our clients think about us? End of March this year, the association “Mindroom” organized its fifth international conference, No Mind Left Behind – Social Brain 3, that took place at the Glasgow Royal Concert Hall. Klewel was commissioned to record the entire event so that delegates participating to the conference and others, registered as virtual delegates, can watch the conference on demand, whenever and wherever they want, as soon as the conference was over.

To that day, more than 700 delegates have logged in to watch presentations of the conference via Klewel’s system.

Testimonial from Sophie Dow, Founder, Mindroom:
Edinburgh 23^rd May 2011

“Mindroom engaged Klewel to ‘capture’ our latest conference
‘No Mind Left Behind’, 29-30^th March 2011 at Glasgow Royal Concert Hall.
It was an international conference on autism, ADHD and other early onset neurodevelopmental disorders featuring 51 leading world experts speaking and over 800 delegates from 19 different countries.
Commissioning Klewel to record the entire event was arguably one of the most important decisions taken by us during the 2-year project.

Not only could we then ensure that the outstanding scientific programme would live on past the two days of the conference, delegates were able to relax safe in the knowledge that they could revisit facts and figures at their leisure – as well as use the information for in house training. No more downloading of powerpoints, no more frantic note taking and no need for extra mega/giga bytes.

Simply type in a password and away you go.
Couldn’t be simpler, nor more efficient.

And with a simple ‘click’, Mindroom is now able to forward the information from ‘No Mind Left Behind’ to all corners of the globe.

Working with Mael and his colleagues at Klewel was an absolute pleasure and the service they provide is as professional and flexible as their specially developed and very clever software.”

It is a great pleasure to hear such a testimonial and motivates us even more to always provide the best service and support to our clients.

Back in December 2009, I met Sophie Dow at our Klewel stand at EIBTM 09 in Barcelona (read the Klewel post). EIBTM is one of the largest world tradeshows for the conference industry including business tourism.

Mindroom was founded by Sophie Dow, whose daughter Annie is 20 years old and has severe learning difficulties as a consequence of a chromosomal deletion on Chromosome 1, the ‘short arm’. MindRoom is a Scottish charity and its vision is a country in which all adults and children with learning difficulties receive the recognition and help they need.

More than a year later, Klewel was in charge of webcasting the No Mind Left Behind – Social Brain 3 Conference at the Glasgow Royal Concert Hall.

Packaging applications of nonwovens have been “slow burn”. After many years of solid, but slow growth this sector is blossoming and now accounts for almost 3% of all nonwovens applications. In addition the market has shown excellent growth in the last few years.

The sector is characterised by a very broad range of applications with technology and innovation key success factors. This workshop aims to open up this growth area and should appeal to packaging end-users and specifiers plus nonwoven manufacturers and converters and raw material producers.

This Workshop was led by Dr. George Kellie.
