InterContinental Malta hosted the Meetings and Incentives Forum, attended by around 300 international meeting industry professionals from across the globe.
The first such forum took place in London in 2006 with the aim of discussing fresh approaches to business marketing. The forums are trade events for destinations to showcase their offerings. This year, Malta joined other destinations including Vienna, Dubai, Amsterdam and Prague in hosting one of these forums.
Martin van Kan, area general manager, Malta, said: “We were very excited to show the fantastic new products recently launched at InterContinental Malta. Our wonderful islands are perfectly suited to host meeting and incentive groups of all sizes and we are sure this forum will bring together worldwide suppliers and planners, all of whom will open up new business opportunities and give attendees total confidence in our destination.”
A wide range of suppliers were represented at each event – including hotels, conference centres and destination management companies. In addition to the forum workshops, team-building activities, dinners and cocktail receptions further networked opportunities for the suppliers to interact with the 300 buyers in attendance.
The event gave guests the opportunity to experience InterContinental Malta’s newly launched luxury suites, Club InterContinental lounge, as well as one of the largest unrestricted plenary room in the Mediterranean, the InterContinental Arena Conference Centre.
