NEW YORK (March 16, 2016) ─ Questex Travel Group today announced that it will launch a fresh, revitalized program for the annual MEET National event, formerly known as HSMAI's MEET National, Sept. 7-8 at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington.
MEET National, organized by Questex LLC, publisher of International Meetings Review and leading organizer of the popular Global Meeting & Incentive Travel Exchanges, is the pre-eminent MICE industry event, attracting over 1,000 highly qualified government, association, corporate and independent meeting planners annually.
In preparation for the new event, organizers launched a thorough evaluation of the 2015 event, said Kirk Lewis, meetings group director for Questex, incorporating input from previous attendee and exhibitor feedback, to create the most productive conference and trade show to meet the changing needs of the marketplace.
"The audience at the 2016 event will witness all kinds of changes," said Lewis, "including a brand-new venue with an optimal floor plan for our exhibitors, an innovative conference developed in partnership with MPI and unlimited networking opportunities, including one-to-one appointments combined with an open show floor."
Exhibitors will come from a veritable cross-section of suppliers, including tourism boards, destination management companies, convention and visitor bureaus, meeting venues, hotels, cruise lines and meeting technology providers.
