Gulf Incentive, Business Travel & Meetings Exhibition (GIBTM), organised by Reed Travel Exhibitions unveiled a new feature area for 2008. The Technology & Event Services Village @ GIBTM is one of the new elements being introduced for the second show that will take place from 8-10 April 2008 at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Company Centre (ADNEC). This dedicated area will feature the latest technology products as well as an array of support services and products for the meetings and incentives industry.
Graeme Barnett, Event Director said: “The fast developing meetings and incentives industry in the region has prompted the need for GIBTM to offer this new feature area. Technology and event services are key to buyers as they are crucial elements of a successful meeting, incentive, conference and/or large event. We expect more exhibitors to book their stand in the near future enabling the feature to offer visitors a variety of solutions.”
Confirmed exhibitors to date include: EVENTEX, Shockfish SA and Ungerboeck Systems International.
“Gulf countries are a booming market for all the meeting industry. GIBTM was an excellent exhibition for us and it helped us immensely to make way into the Gulf region. We have already booked for 2008 and look forward to many more business opportunities,” commented Christophe Draye, CEO, EVENTEX – HIVETHESOLUTION based in Belgium.
Education Programmes
GIBTM has already identified possible technology related seminar sessions. These would include a panel of international technology experts discussing the industry’s future and how to use technology cost-effectively.
