There are only 6 weeks to go before this year's ICCA General Assembly and Congress in Copenhagen and Malmö. There are already record numbers of early registrants (over 470 so far), with at least another 100 registrants expected.

The attraction to join the Congress in Scandinaiva is the extremely strong business reasons, with the opportunity to participate in the Business Leads Exchange and the Exhibition, and to hear what is happening to the industry in all parts of the world.

"At a time when there is great political and economic uncertainty, and terrorist threats to the freedom to travel, we feel it is vital for our members to get together to discuss what can be done to rebuild confidence or at least plan for the new business environment." says Martin Sirk, Chief Executive Officer of ICCA. This is a time when international networking amongst senior peers in our industry can be of massive benefit."

Also on offer this year is a dynamic educational programme targeted to those in all levels and fields of the industry, whether brand new to the business, those looking for distinctive new ways to increase business, and for those at the most senior level.

It is the opportunity to learn about the industry directly from experts who are fellow ICCA members as well as those from outside the association.
