About WICC

The Windhoek International Convention Centre (WICC) is a purpose-built conference venue in Windhoek, operated in association with the Accor hotel group. It hosts conferences, seminars, exhibitions and gala events with modern audio-visual technology, high-speed internet and flexible seating layouts.

WICC is the natural main venue for plenary sessions, parallel oral communications and the scientific programme of the 1st African Buiatrics Congress (25–27 November 2027). Mövenpick and Mercure hotels are on site or within walking distance.

Exhibition opportunities

Industry partners, universities, equipment suppliers and service providers are invited to take part in the congress exhibition held alongside the scientific programme at WICC (25–27 November 2027).

Exhibition stands are located in high-traffic foyer and circulation areas so that delegates pass them during registration, coffee breaks, poster sessions and lunch — maximising visibility without competing with oral sessions.

Why exhibit?

  • Direct access to veterinarians, researchers and decision-makers working with cattle, small ruminants, camelids and game across Africa and beyond
  • Presence during coffee breaks, poster sessions and lunch as set out in the draft agenda
  • Option to combine a stand with sponsorship or a symposium slot (subject to availability and scientific committee approval)
  • Listing in congress materials and, where applicable, the online proceedings environment
