Over the past 10 years the AES has become so popular that most of the places have already filled before registration even opened.

In order to attend the AES, you need to be registered to attend IMEX as a Hosted Buyer. |

15 Reasons ICCA had tremendous Twitter traffic at the 2014 Congress
While on average 10-20% of delegates at a conference or tradeshow are active on Twitter, almost 60% of ICCA Congress delegates were active on Twitter before, during or after the 53rd ICCA Congress, taking place 1-5 November 2014 in Antalya, Turkey. 70% of the delegates using Twitter said it helped them to increase the value of their ICCA Congress experience, and almost 75% claimed that Twitter helped them to increase their interaction with other members. Why take notes on a piece of paper if you can share them and allow the world to see? Read up on 15 ways in which we increased ICCA Congress Twitter traffic on MeetingsPR.com. |
