Hosted Buyer Highlights
Speed Networking
A much loved highlight of the show, this event offers a unique environment in which to make a
lot of new contacts in a small amount of time.
This proven formula allows buyers to make more sort-after introductions with leading travel
exhibitors than would be possible in scheduled appointments or on the show floor.
Networking Events
The perfect opportunity to be a part of the conversation and find out what’s new, exciting and on
the horizon.
An integral part of the program, these social networking events will keep you up to date with
competitors and establish new contacts.
Appointment Match Making
Everyone is busy, and our appointment match system will allow you to schedule one to one
meetings with your top exhibitors with ease.
Your diary will be available to view online so you can block out any conference spots and
schedule in some much needed breaks.
