The B2B Luxury and MICE Workshop is an annual travel industry event organized in Baku (Azerbaijan) and Almaty (Kazakhstan) in April each year. For 2014 the workshop will be in Baku on Tuesday 8th April and in Almaty Thursday 10th April. Both Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan are oil rich markets with high GDP growth and rapidly expanding high-end and FIT outbound travel markets.
The B2B Luxury and MICE workshop offers pre-scheduled appointments with tailor-made ‘Meet and Match-Making’ process based on the preference of local travel industry to the international products and destinations represented. As a result, the meetings are of high quality and often lead to long term partnerships.
In each city, workshop participants meet a minimum of 12 companies as well as participation in networking cocktail reception. Due to the organizer’s 10 years of experience of working in these markets supported by the additional expertise of our local partners, only the most important and leading local agencies are invited to take part.
