The Scottish Exhibition Conference Centre (SECC) is the venue of choice after securing repeat business wins from the British Blood Transfusion Society and the British Transplantation Society, adding to a recent raft of business wins confirmed by the venue.
Returning for their Annual Conference in 2011, The British Blood Transfusion Society are bringing in over 500 delegates to the city and building on the strong relationship forged with the SECC during their last Glasgow conference in 2007.
The British Transplantation Society, impressed by the city and venue during their Glasgow congress back in 2008, will hold their Annual Congress at the SECC in February 2012 and have signed up for a further two years, returning in 2014 and 2016.
Ben Goedegebuure, Director of Sales, SECC commented; “Attracting these events back time and time again against such strong competition is a fantastic achievement for Glasgow and us as a venue."
"We are especially happy that The British Transplantation Society has signed up for three years following their positive experience of the city and venue back in 2008."
"Repeat business is very important to us and demonstrates that we are getting it right and that the service and support we offer our clients exceeds that of any other UK destination.”
Glasgow City Marketing Bureau Chief Executive Scott Taylor added: “Securing repeat business confirms the trust that conference planners have in the city and its partners to achieve conference success and further cements our reputation as a leading business tourism destination.”
The SECC and Glasgow were selected against strong competition from cities across the country to host both congresses that will collectively bring over 2,000 delegates to the city.
