The
Meetings Industry Association’s (mia) latest Connect Day will take place in
Liverpool’s Titanic Hotel on Tuesday 12 July.
Following
the road further North than last year’s Alton Tower’s Connect Day venue, mia chief executive,
Kerrin MacPhie, explains the destination was chosen to provide “accessible
networking opportunities for professionals working across various UK regions.”
The event
programme includes a series of panel sessions on topics such as the state of
the supply chain, the evolution of customer expectations as well as key
industry issues and opportunities on the sector’s journey to recovery.
Combined
with peer-to-peer discussions throughout the day, as well as teambuilding
activities and an informative agent Q&A session, the event has been
designed to encourage business relationships and inspiring open discussion,
insight sharing and industry solutions.
MacPhie added:
“Our Connect events are always well-received by the industry and provide a
unique opportunity for professionals to develop meaningful connections with
some of the industry’s leading event agents. Add to this the intimate series of
discussions and it also provides attendees with insight and solutions to some
of the sector’s most pressing opportunities and challenges.
The event
will take place from 9am to 4pm, with tickets priced at £210+ VAT for mia
members and £310+ VAT for non-members. Further information and ticket details
can be found here.
