Paul Kennedy MBE, EIBTM Exhibition Director, commented: “Following close debate with the key industry associations and our own association committee the EIBTM 2006 Association Programme has been further developed this year to meet the needs of Association meeting planers. Crucial networking time has been added so that planners can learn from each other by sharing issues and problems.  Equally, we have a number of roundtable discussions and case studies to stimulate debate.”

Case studies on today’s most pressing communication issues facing international associations, including roundtable sessions. This session is designed for planners to present their biggest communication challenges and the solutions they came up with. A series of 10-15 minutes case studies will be used to stimulate discussion.
