Dates confirmed for 2010 Business Travel Market
Next year’s Business Travel Market has been confirmed for June 16 and 17 at ExCeL, London.
The event, which made its debut earlier this month, saw over 2,000 people through the doors with more than 1,400 meetings taking place.
Of the 1,500 pre-arranged appointments made these buyers, 85% were kept.
‘We are very pleased with the response from the industry so far,†said Paul Robin, founder and event director.
“We have already received many booking enquiries from TMCs to rail companies and some who did not participate this year have expressed their interest at different levels of participation in 2010.
“Next year we plan to double the size of the hosted buyer programme and grow the conference and meetings elements as well.â€
