Acting on SWISS’s behalf, the SCIB will:
  • draw up the Official Carrier Agreement (based on SWISS’s guidelines)
  • ensure that the special fare discounts are communicated to attendees
  • organise any tickets that SWISS has agreed to provide for speakers or other invited guests and
  • ensure that SWISS is suitably mentioned in all publications relating to the event, including the event’s website (if applicable).
