SWX: Opening Of ConventionPoint

Date 17/09/2001

The new ConventionPoint conference centre - an additional service of the SWX Swiss Exchange - will officially commence its operating activities today.

Effective immediately, participants, issuers and companies of the SWX Group (SWX Swiss Exchange, Eurex, virt-x, STOXX, EXFEED), as well as other corporate customers from Switzerland and abroad, can take advantage of a modern, multipurpose array of meeting facilities at the Exchange building on Selnaustrasse 30 in Zurich. Six conference and/or seminar rooms that can accommodate anywhere from 18 to 200 people - or for that matter, the entire ConventionPoint for large-scale events involving up to 400 participants - are now available for rent. The ambience, audio/video equipment, and presentation and communication technology are all state-of-the art. An inviting bar with adjoining kitchen, as well as separate catering infrastructure, round out the ConventionPoint's range of services.

Culinarium AG will act as partner in seeing to the well-being of guests. ConventionPoint customers nonetheless always have the option of arranging for their own catering service.
