Geneva, Switzerland, May 31, 2015 – Kenes Group, a leading Professional Conference Organiser (PCO) and Association Management Company (AMC), is pleased to announce its latest client win, the League of ASEAN Dermatological Societies (LADS) and the society’s appointment of Kenes as the core PCO for the 2016 Regional Conference of Dermatology (RDS), to be hosted in Singapore, April 21-24, 2016.
The biennial Regional Conference of Dermatology (Asian-Australasian), RDS under the auspices of LADS, covers the regions of Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam. Established in 1974 by the national dermatological societies of Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore and Thailand, LADS is a non-profit organization of the national dermatological societies in the Southeast Asian Region, devoted to training, service and research in dermatology, as well as establishing linkages and collaborations and fostering camaraderie with each member society.
The LADS’ Local Organising Committee is made up of renowned dermatologists from the region and around the globe, all leaders in their fields and all experienced in conference management. “When it came to selecting a valuable partner to head up RDS 2016, LADS scanned the market and Kenes quickly became the frontrunners,” comments Jason Ng, Managing Director Kenes Asia. “It is Kenes’ global experience that won us RDS, but it is also our strong local presence. With a fully staffed professional team at Kenes Asia in Bangkok and in Singapore, on-the-ground expertise and a host of local partners, RDS 2016 is expected to welcome 800 participants – the largest-ever RDS event,” he added.
