Co-operative Showcases

Up to 2,000 delegates from over 80 countries will be attending the forthcoming ICA Global Conference and General Assembly in Cape Town. This will be an excellent opportunity to promote your organisation or project to like-minded co-operators.

We have secured space in the venue, the Cape Town International Convention Centre (CTICC), from 3rd to 5th November to enable delegates to showcase their product, organisation or concept to a wider audience.

If you are interested in booking one of the Showcase rooms for between one and two hours, and on one or more days please email your request to: Ms. Antonina Guarrella at guarrella@ica.coop with the following information:

  • Name
  • Job title
  • Organisation
  • Showcase subject

We will include your Showcase opportunity on the event website.  As the applicant, you will be responsible for co-ordinating the Showcase, sending invitations, producing any print, erecting exhibitions and any technical requirements. When your application for a Showcase is confirmed you will receive a form to book any technical requirements directly with the CTICC and you will be responsible for any payments.

The capacity of each room is 50 persons.

Please check the availability of the rooms in the chart below and note that bookings will be allocated on a first come first served basis.
