SERVICES
Association Management
CAP Partner provides professional association management services for European and international scientific associations working on a not-for-profit basis.
Association management
“I’m ready to take my association to the next level.”
“Our association has so much potential, if only we had more time.”
Does this sound familiar? If so, we can help.
Our clients are often highly accomplished researchers, clinicians, and specialists who generously dedicate their expertise to scientific associations and professional societies alongside their careers. Many of the organisations we support are healthcare associations representing healthcare professionals with a focus on clinical practice, research, or both.
As associations grow, so do the demands of running them effectively. A professional and reliable secretariat becomes essential to support governance, administration, fundraising, meeting and event planning, member communications, marketing, and the day-to-day continuity of operations.
At CAP Partner, we provide tailored association management services that enable organisations to thrive. Through sponsorship programmes, educational activities, and conferences, we help associations strengthen their financial sustainability and generate additional revenue. These funds can then be reinvested into new initiatives, member services, research, education, and other activities that support the organisation’s mission and long-term development.
Secretariat services
We can help you with
CAP Partner can provide structured scientific association management, ensuring stability, support, and long-term development for the scientific association. This gives the board more time to focus on leading the association’s scientific and strategic direction.
Administration
When we run the secretariat, active members of the association gain time to focus on the tasks that require their professional competencies.
Education & publications
We support the planning and delivery of educational activities, including face-to-face courses, e-learning programmes and webinars. In addition, we assist with the development of international guidelines and recommendations, the management of scientific journals, and participation in EU-funded collaborative projects in partnership with our association clients.
Fundraising
Our fundraising support includes a structured and dedicated approach to identifying relevant funding opportunities, as well as engaging with potential sponsors and funding organisations. Our efforts often result in increased income for the organisation and may, in many cases, offset the cost of our services through a strengthened focus on financial sustainability and fundraising.
Meetings and events
We provide end-to-end organisation and support for conferences, courses, board meetings and annual meetings. We closely monitor the event finances and ensure that all logistics are delivered in line with the plan, allowing key stakeholders to focus on the scientific content.
Strategy and consultancy
Knowledge is meant to be shared. As consultants, we can support the overall strategic direction of an association, contribute to the planning of specific activities, and develop targeted fundraising strategies. Our aim is to strengthen the association’s activities and enhance its overall impact.
Project management
We support the management of activities that ensure strategic decisions lead to measurable outcomes. Our services include:
- Development of international guidelines and recommendations
- Coordination of educational programmes
- Collaboration on EU-funded projects
- Webinars and e-learning initiatives
- Establishment of professional networks
- Development of online resource hubs
- Dissemination and implementation strategies
