The Site International Foundation (SITE Global) announced that the annual Site Nite North America event will once again collaborate with Corporate Meetings & Incentives and the CMI 25 reception as both events move to Las Vegas, Nevada, USA.
The 2011 events will be held in concert with IMEX America, a new tradeshow for the worldwide meetings, events and incentive travel industry.
On the evening of 10 October, delegates to these two prestigious industry events can capitalize on meeting the best of the best in the industry, while enjoying the elite surroundings of the Wynn Las Vegas and the Encore Beach Club.
Site International Foundation President Steve O’Malley, Senior Vice President, Maritz Travel states: “The Site International Foundation recognizes the power of strong collaborations and partnerships."
"With our mission to conduct and publish valuable research that will benefit the greater motivational events and incentive travel industry, we appreciate the opportunity to join forces with Corporate Meetings & Incentives as well as the MeetingsNet family."
"There is no doubt this one single night will deliver powerful value as it raises awareness for great leaders, provides fundraising for continued high-impact research and facilitates meaningful dialogue and networking for industry professionals.”
CMI 25 reception honors those organizations listed in CMI’s annual report on the 25 largest meeting and incentive companies focused on the corporate market. Site Nite North America has taken its place as the premier industry networking event for professionals focused on motivational events and incentive travel.
For the second time, Site Nite will be chaired by Kurt Paben, Senior Vice President, Carlson Marketing Worldwide. Last year, the event raised more than $90,000 to support industry research, trend analysis and educational programs.
The Site Nite host committee, along with Diamond Sponsor Wynn Las Vegas, is planning to welcome over 900 industry colleagues to a sold out event.
"We're excited to hold the CMI 25 reception, our fifth annual, in conjunction with Site Nite at the inaugural IMEX America," said Betsy Bair, Editorial Director, Corporate Meetings & Incentives, part of MeetingsNet, Penton Media.
“I can’t believe it’s been five years since we began identifying and publishing the list of the industry's largest and most influential full-service meeting and incentive travel management companies focused on the corporate market."
"We look forward to announcing our annual list in the September issue of CMI, and to celebrating the achievements of these elite companies at a reception on the Monday evening before IMEX begins, and leading into what promises to be the most successful Site Nite yet.”
The event on 10 October marks the fourth year of collaboration between Site and CMI.
