"At IMEX Frankfurt last year, I received a lead from a huge global IT distributor, which confirmed post-show. The result? In March this year, we delivered a nine-day incentive for 90 employees who traveled through India, visiting five destinations, including Delhi, Goa and Jaipur."

Amaresh Tiwari,

Vice Chairman, India Convention Promotion Bureau

"The buyers we’ve met during the show perfectly fit our business needs—about half of them are corporate and association buyers wanting to bring incentives to our destination."

Dennis Whitelaw,

Area General Manager at Marriott International, Costa Rica

"Every single one of our reps had a full diary coming into the show and that’s not even counting the many walk ups we’ve had! We’ve met with existing clients who want to find out more about our new products. Many have asked about AI—people admit they don’t know how to use it effectively, but there’s a real willingness to get stuck in and find out more."
