Steps

Add an event in four steps

  1. Open the event form

    On the Events page, press “Add” beside the title. In your account it is “Add your event” under “Add something new”.

    Add your event

  2. Choose the plan

    Members take the “Members Listings Plan”, everyone else the “Free event listing”. Both are free; we confirm membership when we review the event. If every company your account manages is a member, this step is skipped.

  3. Log in

    If you are not logged in, the form asks you to: “Log in”, or “Create account” with your business address.

    Your account

  4. Fill in and submit

    Give the date, the place, the host company from the directory and the link to your event’s own page; co-organizers not in the directory go under “Other hosts or co-organizers”. Add a picture without text, then press “Submit listing”. “Save as draft” keeps it in your account for later.

What we publish

Events relevant to the whole biotech community in Switzerland, organized professionally; no purely regional or company marketing events. We decide whether an event is published.

What happens next

The review

We review the event within 1 to 3 working days and email you once it is online, in the Events calendar and on your company’s profile. Until then it shows as “Under review” in your account.

Changes later

Log in and press “Edit listing” on the event’s card in your account. Every change is reviewed again, within 1 to 3 working days, so change a published event only where it matters: the program and the registration belong on your own page, which the event links.

After the event

Once its date has passed, the event leaves the upcoming events. Next year’s edition is a new event: add it as before, or copy the text from the old one.
