VisitBritain has announced its flagship business event MeetGB will return in 2019, to show 120 international buyers why the UK is the destination of choice for meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions (MICE).
MeetGB will welcome 80 suppliers from venues, hotels and local attractions across the UK to do business with global buyers from France, Germany and North America at the De Vere Beaumont Estate in Windsor, 11 – 12 April 2019.
The programme will see the buyers and suppliers engage in one-to-one business meetings, networking events and workshops.
VisitBritain chief executive Sally Balcombe said: “We are proud to bring MeetGB to Windsor in 2019 after the success of our inaugural event in 2018.
“MeetGB has been designed with global buyers in mind to demonstrate the breadth and quality of the UK’s meetings and events industry, highlighting VisitBritain’s commitment to growing the business events sector.
“The event gives UK suppliers a platform to promote their products on an international scale, creating valuable business connections that will ultimately drive more international MICE events across the country.”
Ahead of the business programme, buyers will be introduced to some of the best of the UK’s conference and events offering as they take part in three days of educational visits across the country.
MeetGB is hosted by VisitBritain, in partnership with VisitEngland, Visit Wales, VisitScotland and Tourism Northern Ireland.
