New Austrian business and convention network
With Austria, and Vienna in particular, consistently ranking among the top conference and meeting destinations world-wide, the Austrian National Tourist Office is now even further increasing its emphasis on the conference and incentive industry.

To promote Austria as a conference destination even more efficiently and to pro-actively assist organisers who are planning an event in Austria, the new Austrian Business and Convention Network (ABCN) has recently been installed. ABCN is spear-headed by Ms Inge Tremmel, who has joined ANTO after many years at the Vienna Convention Bureau. The UK conference market continues to be looked after by marketing manager Nadja Horvatek.

ABCN operates as a part of the Austrian National Tourist Office and joins forces with partner organisations such as the Austrian Convention Bureau, the Austrian Airlines Group and the Round Table Conference Hotels. ABCNs main focus is set on working more closely with conference and event planners, on responding more directly to their needs and on providing a quick and efficient service, such as the free of charge venue search service that ANTO has been successfully operating in recent years.
