The offsite ABT-ACTE Russia conference «Purchases in business travel and MICE» was held on August 27 in Saint Petersburg in Grand Hotel Emerald.

The first International MICE Geography Show was held in the Metropol on September 17-18. Participants of the two-day event were 66 Russian and foreign exhibitors and about 200 MICE service buyers, including agency representatives, corporate buyers and 50 hosted buyers.

They all know each other, but do not recognize... The villain of the piece is the IMG Show! The MICE industry has never seen such a festival of sheens and dinner jackets before.
