Conference, congress and convention production in Argentina

SOMOS DER produces the event side of your conference or congress in Buenos Aires and across Argentina: sound and conference systems, screens, live streaming, accreditation on PASE (our own platform), staff, catering and the gala dinner. One production lead, from the first site visit to the closing report, working in English with your team.

What we produce for a conference or congress

Only services we have already delivered at events published on this site.

Sound and conference systems

Microphones at the speakers table, wireless mics for questions from the floor and a technician in every room, all tested the day before.

Screens, stage and lighting

LED screen or projection readable from every table, stage and lighting adapted to the room during the site visit.

Live streaming

Live broadcast of the open sessions for delegates following from outside the room, with a dedicated crew.

Accreditation on PASE

Registration, QR check-in, badges printed on arrival, colours by attendee type, walk-in sign-ups and the attendance report the same night.

Staff and reception

Hostesses and reception staff at accreditation and in the rooms, briefed on the congress running order.

Host and running order

A host for the sessions with a block-by-block script prepared with the organisers.

Catering and gala dinner

Coffee breaks, lunches and the closing night: venue, staging, sound, lighting and catering.

Several venues, one lead

Plenary, breakout rooms and the evening event under a single technical coordination.

Why Argentina for your congress, with sources

Destination context from the ICCA ranking. Not SOMOS DER work.

No. 1 in the Americas

Buenos Aires was the top city in the Americas and 20th in the world in the ICCA 2025 ranking, for the 15th consecutive edition, with 91 association meetings counted.

Córdoba: 5 to 17

Córdoba went from 5 to 17 ICCA meetings between 2024 and 2025. Argentina is more than Buenos Aires.

ICCA counts international association meetings that rotate between countries. Corporate conventions are not part of that count.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What does SOMOS DER do at a conference or congress in Argentina?

We produce the event side: sound and conference systems, screens, stage and lighting, live streaming, accreditation on PASE, staff, a host, catering and the gala dinner, with one production lead.

Are you a PCO?

Not a full-service one, and we would rather say it plainly: we do not handle abstracts, paid registration or hotel room blocks. We work alongside your PCO, your agency or your team and make sure the rooms, the check-in and the evenings run.

How does accreditation work?

On PASE, our own platform: the delegate list is loaded in advance, each person checks in with a QR code or by name, the badge prints on the spot with name, title and company, and you get the attendance report that night.

Can you stream the sessions?

Yes. At the 5th World Congress of Asturian Communities we streamed the open sessions live with a dedicated crew so they could be followed from outside the room.

Do you work outside Buenos Aires?

Yes. We produce across Argentina and Latin America with our own production direction and local suppliers.

How do you quote from abroad?

With local suppliers at local market prices. We review every quote against our production criteria and present a single figure in your currency. There is no standard price because every congress is different.
