The 2006 annual ICCA Congress & Exhibition taking place on the island of Rhodes, Greece from 28 October until 1 November officially broke the record for the number of registered attendees. There are now over 720 individuals booked in, and with more than three weeks to go until the gathering in Rhodes the final figure is almost certain to be in excess of 750 attendees from over 60 countries.
The last time our congress was in Europe was in 2002, when in Copenhagen we had our last record attendance of just over 650 says Martin Sirk, ICCA CEO. Over the last four years we have boosted ICCA membership by approximately 25%, and of course 2002 was at the height of the economic fallout from the 9/11 attacks, so I will be extremely surprised and disappointed if we don`t smash all previous attendance records.
Sirk highlights the strongest speaker programme ever and innovative technological tools such as the handheld Spotme networking device and the award winning technology of LOG ON s Mobile Event Assistant as major attractions.
