The Meetings Show Increases Group Coordinators by27%7 January 2016

07 Jan 2016

New group coordinators at The Meetings Show 2016 include leading companies such as Steinberger

Hotels, ExCel London and Park Plaza. They join more than 40 returning coordinators including

HelmsBriscoe, Dubai Business Events, London & Partners, Lime Venue Portfolio and Inntel as well as

ACC Liverpool, ABPCO, Hilton Hotels & Resorts and Shocklogic, who are focused on recruiting

association buyers.

“Group coordinators are the backbone of our hosted buyer programme. They understand the market,

have strong relationships with the leading buyers and add significant credibility to our offering,” comments

Steve Knight, Event Director, The Meetings Show. “Our coordinators are already busy identifying their

best buyers allowing us to host an even larger number of attendees from the UK as both fully and

semi-hosted attendees.”

Mags Shaw, Director at Mags Worldwide, said: “The Meetings Show is an ideal place to gather our buyer

contacts, network with them, conduct business and learn, particularly with those from the UK. The

flexibility of the different attendance options, including the semi-hosted opportunity allows us to meet the

needs of buyers whether they be local to London, travelling down from Scotland or joining us from

overseas.”

Group coordinators work alongside The Meetings Show’s hosted buyer team to bring key clients to the

event. They include a mixture of exhibitors, representation companies, agencies and well known industry

figures who use the programme to spend dedicated face-to-face time with those individuals that join their

hosted buyer group. Hosted buyers and their coordinators benefit from complimentary travel and

accommodation, exclusive access to hosted buyer lounges and attendance at networking events.

Organised by Centaur Live (a division of Centaur Media Plc), The Meetings Show is the premier event for

the UK inbound and outbound meetings industry, taking place 14-16 June, 2016 at Olympia, London.

Organised by meeting professionals for meeting professionals it is focused around a large exhibition,

Home News Agency ABPCO experiencing surge in corporate members to kick start 2016

Category: Agency & Association Created on Monday, 11 January 2016 09:15

A surge in corporate members has helped to give the Association of British Professional Conference Organisers (ABPCO) a strong start to the New Year.

Venues such as 1 Wimpole Street, Conference Cambridge, Alexony Ltd, Harrogate International Centre and imago have all become corporate members of the

association over the past few months with that trend set to continue throughout the early part of 2016.

“Our partnership with ABPCO is something we are really excited about,” comments Emma Boynton, Head of Sales and Marketing at imago. “The benefits of being a

corporate member are clear to see. We will not only benefit from the fantastic reputation and integrity that ABPCO holds within the industry but it also gives us opportunities to

learn and grow as a venue too. We look forward to the education, networking and business opportunities that will no doubt come by being a corporate member.”

All ABPCO corporate members are recognised by the quality marque which is an industry trusted standard within professional conference organising.

“2015 was a great year for us in terms of growth in numbers of PCO members so to now see a real rise in our corporate members has helped to start the New Year with a

bang,” said Caroline Windsor, joint-chair of ABPCO. “Our members are the backbone of this association. The reason we are able to grow, educate and support is because

of the trust and passion our members show for ABPCO and the industry they work within. This new surge of corporate members will only help strengthen us in what is set to

be an exciting year for ABPCO.”

The number of ABPCO corporate members now stands at 36 and includes the likes of the Barbican, ACC Liverpool, Cvent, The Meetings Show and Visit Belfast. The total

membership number of ABPCO now stands at 142.

ABPCO is the UK’s leading organisation for professional conference and event organisers, industry associates and those studying for, or seeking a career in the conference

and meetings industry.

The Meetings Show will take place on 14-16

June 2016 at Olympia London

Applications are now open for The Meetings Show’s hosted buyer

programme.

Those choosing fully hosted buyer status will benefit from two days at

the show, complimentary travel, and complimentary accommodation

for up to two nights.

Buyers based in Greater London or the South East, as well as those

needing to comply with travel policies can participate in a flexible

semi-hosted buyer option, which includes just four pre-scheduled

appointments per day.

All hosted buyers have access to the online diary to organise their time

at the show in advance, access to hosted buyer lounges with

complimentary refreshments, invitations to exclusive hosted buyers

networking functions and the opportunity to apply for post event tours.

Event director Steve Knight said: “The Meetings Show has created the

UK’s largest, most comprehensive and respected hosted buyer

programme for our industry. This allows the buyers to focus on what is

most important to them - business, knowledge growth and relationship

building.”

New supporters of The Meetings Show for 2016 include Hyatt Hotels,

hotel republic, Millennium & Copthorne Hotels, Sheffield Convention

Bureau, Greater Miami Convention and Visitors Bureau, Dubrovnik

Tourist Board, Eventbrite and Searcys. They sit alongside returning

visitors such as London & Partners, VisitScotland, Tourism Ireland,

Macdonald Hotels & Resorts and Dubai Business Events.

A 2015 hosted buyer, Annecarien Dijkhuis, an event specialist at Nike

European Headquarters said: “The Meetings Show provides the

perfect opportunity for me to meet key suppliers, develop relationships

and conduct business face to face with industry leaders from around

the world. In particular its personal and flexible approach to hosted

buyers means my time has been efficient and focused.

“Through the wide range of networking events I have developed and

created partnerships that will be of benefit and I look forward to

returning in 2016.”

Organised by Centaur Live, The Meetings Show takes place on 14-16

June at Olympia, London.
