Convention Bureau Bochum

The Convention Bureau Bochum (CBB) is the central point of contact for congresses, meetings, conferences, incentives and business events in Bochum. As a joint venture between Bochum Marketing, Bochum Economic Development and Bochum Events, the CBB brings together tourism expertise, business contacts, event management experience and a strong regional network of partners. Bochum offers the ideal conditions for this: a central location in the heart of the Ruhr region, excellent accessibility via motorways, long-distance transport links and international airports in the region, as well as a diverse range of venues. Whether it’s a congress hall, a conference hotel, an event venue, a seminar room or an extraordinary location steeped in industrial heritage – the city combines professional infrastructure with urban flair and the authentic character of the Ruhr region. The services offered by the Convention Bureau Bochum range from advice and the arrangement of suitable venues, through hotel bookings and block bookings, to supporting programmes, participant management and other event-related services. In addition, the CBB opens doors to Bochum-based companies, universities, exclusive venues, speakers and decision-makers. There is a particular emphasis on the concept of networking. The Bochum Convention Bureau sees itself as a platform for event organisers, venues, hotels, technical service providers, caterers, the business community, the academic sector and other MICE stakeholders. This collaboration facilitates efficient communication, tailor-made solutions and professional access to the city's best contacts. With key sectors such as IT, cybersecurity, healthcare and smart health, Bochum is also positioning itself as a conference and knowledge hub with a bright future. This is where research, business, live culture and event expertise come together. The result is business events that not only impress in terms of organisation, but also make an impact in terms of content, atmosphere and economic benefits.
