Extracts:

ART. 4 – CANCELLATION: If the stand is not entirely paid for prior to the beginning of the conference, the Organizing Committee will not be liable to refund the amounts already paid. In case of cancellation by an exhibitor prior to 31 May 2023, the organizer will retain 50% of the total amount of the invoice as compensation.

For any cancellation request occurring from 1 June 2023 onwards, the entire amount of the invoice will be due and will be retained as a compensation for contract breach.

If the entire reservation fees haven’t been paid at least 30 days prior to the date of the event, the exhibitor will not have the possibility to choose the location of their stand. If the total reservation fees haven’t been paid at least 15 days prior to the event, AVICENNE DEVELOPPEMENT reserves the right to refuse the exhibitor’s access to the event.

ART. 11 – CANCELLATION OF THE EVENT: In case of force majeure, the dates of the conference and the exhibition could be changed or simply cancelled. In this case the available amounts after payment of the expenses incurred will be shared between the exhibitors on a prorata basis with no possibility of recourse against the organizer.

Refunds will be made in the following ways:

a. For payments received by credit or debit cards, the same credit/debit card will be refunded (within 2 months of the payment only).

b. For all other payments, a bank transfer will be made to the payee named on the account.

Please note: for payments received from outside France by bank transfer, the refund will be made by bank transfer – all bank charges payable by the recipient.
