01. First, it would be 'seminars' rather than 'seminaries'. The list you give is so various, that I would use the general word 'activities' or perhaps 'professional gatherings'. 02br
02br
002. 'Contacts' would be made from time to time on demand, while 'relations' would be ongoing and relatively continuous, so you can choose the word appropriate to your context. 02br
02br
003. I like 'specialized' but both are OK. There is also 'dedicated' and 'trade' (if for business). 02br
02br
004. If I may revise: 'The centre was founded through the efforts of Prof. Elzbieta H. Oleksy, its current manager'. (Usually a simple 'Prof.' is used, irrespective of the referent's full qualifications.) 0-
