EIBTM Announces Details of its 2005 Association Program

Now in its fourth year, this year´s EIBTM Association Program will be taking place from November 28 to 30 at Fira Gran Via, in Spain´s Barcelona.

Following on from last year´s program of education roundtable sessions and networking events, EIBTM have carried out research from 2004 attendees and are working with industry associations and an association committee to ensure the program continues to build on association delegates´ needs.

Changes to the program this year will mean that delegates will arrive in Barcelona earlier on the first day to attend an educational afternoon, followed by the Association Welcome Evening. The educational session on Day One gives execs more wiggle room to visit the EIBTM exhibition floor on the last day and powwow with exhibitors of their choice.

“These changes have been implemented as a result of research following last year´s event which showed that attendees wanted more time to spend on the show floor meeting suppliers in addition to the education and networking already provided”, commented Paul Kennedy, EIBTM Exhibition Director.

In addition, EIBTM have split some of the education to allow buyers with different experience to attend sessions more relevant to them.

The EIBTM Association Program includes flights from a European destination, two-night accommodation in Barcelona, networking functions, the educational program and a personal diary of appointments with exhibitors.

EIBTM will take place from November 29 to December 1, 2005, in Barcelona.
