Meeting Place Berlin is hosted every two years by the Berlin Convention Office to showcase its convention facilities, hotels and venues. This conference helps meeting and event planners to establish a personal network of business contacts while they are in Berlin.
During three days, attendees will meet with hotels, conventions centers, venues, transportation companies and other exhibitors. Participants are split into two groups. One day is spent at conference in appointments with local providers, one day is spent touring facilities and venues, and one day is spent experiencing Berlin itself.
The Berlin Convention Office organizes this program to highlight Berlin as a congress destination to demonstrate why Berlin is one of the top cities in Europe, attracting millions of business travel visitors each year. In fact, in 2008, 104,600 events with more than 8 million attendees in Berlin -- an increase of 5% over 2007.
Berlin has six convention centers, 161 meeting hotels and 135 "unusual" meeting venues. Its theaters, galleries, restaurants, architecture and history make Berlin a unique destination.
The Berlin Convention Office provides planners with support for events, seminars, meetings and congresses, including help with congress bids, hotel and event location availability checks, partner contacts, site inspections, transfer services, guides, booking services for tickets and more.
Meeting Place Berlin is open to qualified conference and meeting organizers and industry trade professionals only. Those who are interested in participating must apply for meet qualifications. For more information, review the Meeting Place Berlin website.
