New initiatives including flexible flights and more departure points have driven an increase in requests for Hosted Buyer places at this year's 25th EIBTM, with over 700 UK meetings industry professionals expected to attend.
Hosted Buyers will be able to focus on tailored streams of education dedicated to their professional status, including the Association, Agency, Business Travel and Corporate sessions. More than 60 educational streams are available over the 3 days of the show, and with complimentary flights, 4/5* accommodation and transfers, plus networking events, this year’s UK Hosted Buyer participation is expected to be the biggest to date.
Graeme Barnett, Reed Travel Exhibitions, EIBTM Event Director commented, “Our aim this year is to make EIBTM a great business and skills opportunity and our Hosted Buyer programme focuses on achieving these objectives. Barcelona is only a two hour flight away and attendance will provide up to three days of business, networking and education which is dedicated to helping business grow in the UK. We are looking forward to welcoming those who join us.”
EIBTM 2012 takes place 27th – 29th November, Fira Gran Via Barcelona, and The EIBTM Forum will take place on 26th November in Fira Montjuic, Barcelona City Centre.
