Сроки проведения семинара: 02.03.13-17.03.13
How could it be rendered in a standard British English?
Workshop will be held from 2nd to 29th March, 2013, I suppose?
or would "02.03.13-17.03.13" also be permissible, for instance,
Dates: 02.03.13-17.03.13 ? of which I have some doubts.
This line belongs to an announcement about a workshop which is going to be published on a company website.
Please comment on this. Thank you all in advance.

Note from asker:
| Ahem. Frankly speaking, I would vote for Simon's answer, for March 2 – 17, 2012 of yours seems to be Yankee format. While that's BE date format I am fishing for, as you correctly noted. |

: It's better to spell out the month to avoid confusion because date formats differ.

Discussion
2-17 March 2013 (note no comma after March)
OR
02.03.13-17.03.13
and then you say " 2nd to 29th March, 2013" - so make sure the dates are the same :)
