- During my studies in the 90s of Communication, Politics and Psychology I have worked as a freelancer on exhibitions and other events. This allowed me to learn all the basic things which make events a success: Working at the registration counter and to hand over materials to guests or delegates, collecting stuff for thousands of congress bags (well, not a nice job), solving technical problems with exhibitors, doing market research with visitor questionaire, doing sales calls and trying to get more exhibitors etc.
- After 1998 I have managed event projects in all sizes: Starting with small tradefairs in Germany and continuing with leading international shows after year 2000 in Europe as well as in Asia.
- After 2005 I have focused on the MICE market in Germany being with Compass Tours Incoming.
- In 2009 the company was reorganized and is now called KATER MICE & TOURS GmbH, The brands/divisions are Compass Tours Incoming and Unique Germany.
- While the company has started with one office in 1974, we have grown into 4 own offices, each with our own experienced and educated staff.
- This means: We are the Destination Management Company which covers all of Germany with 4 own offices in Berlin, Frankfurt, Hamburg and Munich.
- We have specialised in organising Meetings & Conferences, Incentive Trips, Special Interest Tours, Leisure Groups and Corporate-/Special Events.
