Fitwise is a Professional Conference Organiser (PCO) and Association Management company based in Scotland, working across the healthcare, scientific and research sectors. We are a team of around 30 people across five specialist departments: events, sales, marketing, finance and secretariat services. This breadth of expertise allows us to support associations and societies with a wide range of needs. With more than 35 years’ experience, we truly are leaders in the field, providing a seamless, joined-up service for the ongoing management of your association and the successful delivery of your conference.
Association Management
We can act as your head office, providing the specialist support services you need to ensure your association runs smoothly and efficiently. We already take care of more than 10,000 members across our existing association clients, with individual memberships ranging from 400 to 3,000. This allows you to focus on your strategic objectives while we look after the day-to-day delivery.
Alongside association management, we deliver more than 45 educational events each year. These range from large annual conferences of approximately 1,000 participants to smaller roadshows and corporate study days for around 60–100 attendees. Our events team has more than 70 years of combined experience, bringing extensive organising expertise and industry knowledge as we work with you to bring your conference vision to life.
Our approach is flexible: we tailor a bespoke solution to meet your event’s needs, drawing from our comprehensive event management services. We also invest in the latest technology to maximise delegate engagement and participation.
Event Management
We manage the end-to-end planning and delivery of conferences and educational events, working as an extension of your team. From programme development and speaker support to delegate management, supplier coordination and on-site delivery, we focus on a smooth experience for organisers, speakers and attendees.
Whether your event is in-person, virtual or hybrid, we provide clear project management, robust processes and transparent budget control. We use proven systems to support registration, communications and reporting, helping you demonstrate value and continuously improve delegate experience.
