Company Profile

Lucy Felicissimo is recognized as a world leader in managing medical conferences - both international and location.
Her passion for conference organizing began in 1972 when working with John C. Beck, Chairman of the Department of Medicine at McGill University and Secretary General of the International Society of Endocrinology.
Accomplishments include management of international conferences on AIDS, infectious disease, sleep, transplantation and ob/gyn.

F&A's headquarters are based adjacent to the Montréal Convention Centre, in the heart of Montréal. The office houses ten full-time staff, whose responsibilities range from the day-to-day running of Society business matters to the planning and organization of every detail of large-scale international events.
External resources include a handful of select individuals who are called upon for specific services, as well as three allied companies, responsible for graphic design, hotel management, and electronic abstract processing.
F&A's talented staff and solid infrastructure answer to client needs in an efficient and cost-effective way, as many resources are shared between clients and projects.
