The Meetings Industry Association (mia) is continuing to work hard to lobby government for greater financial measures for the business meetings and events industry in the face of Covid19.
The association is calling for as many events businesses to take their fortnightly survey so that they can provide as up-to-date information to government as possible.
Meetings Industry Association chief executive Jane Longhurst says: “Your responses are informing our direct communication to government as we continue to fight for support for the sector.
“We are communicating directly with Government because we are concerned that, whilst of massive economic importance, our sector could easily be lost in the myriad of headline messages in the press and to government from the wider hospitality industry as Coronavirus impacts on pubs, clubs and restaurants.
“As a sector we are not headlining but we are haemorrhaging. So please do provide your response as soon as possible to help inform our next communication with government.”

The Meetings Industry Association is continuing to use governmental advice in its strategy to help provide the business meetings and events industry with a hub for the latest information and advice, and have developed a framework for contract guidance to help mitigate the impact on trade, along with other regular updates and insights in its dedicated resource area.
The association is also calling on all eventprofs to get in touch with them to voice their concerns. To have your say, email voice@mia-uk.org
