Social Events
Paperless policy
To protect the environment and as a health precaution, all our events are paperless:
Appointments diaries, the programme, the catalogue and buyer profiles are digitised and available for your PC or smartphone, by downloading the “Eureka EventHub” app, which you will be able to access with the same login details as used for your reserved area.
N.B.: Don’t worry if you’re not familiar with this technology!
We know that the digitisation process needs time before it truly comes of age. For this reason, in parallel with the digital system, we supply traditional supports, all strictly made of 100% recyclable material.
The ID badge, required to access activities, venues and evenings, will be available at the registration desk.
"Eureka EventHub" APP
How to download it and how it works
The APP will be downloadable from early November free of charge from Apple Store and Play Store.
Its use is intuitive; once you have entered your access credentials, you will be just a click away from various functions and the possibility of immediately viewing useful information related to the event.
