Case Study: PROTEO achieves repeatable symposium workflows with Fourwaves

PROTEO streamlines 25 symposiums with Fourwaves

Proteo, a Quebec research network, faced the challenge of managing its large annual academic symposium, which rotates between different host universities each year. This created a need for a centralized event management system to handle registrations, abstract submissions, and communications while providing continuity across different organizing teams. They turned to the vendor Fourwaves and its conference management software to solve this.

Fourwaves provided a stable, all-in-one platform that became the foundation for the symposium's workflows. The solution centralized the event website, registration, and abstract submissions, streamlining the entire process. This provided critical continuity for over a decade, allowing each new host team to adapt the event rather than rebuild it from scratch. The measurable impact is that Fourwaves successfully handles the event's scale each year, which includes hundreds of participants and more than 100 submissions.
