Global Meetings Industry Day
April 12, 2018
Global Meetings Industry Day (GMID) is intended to shine a light on the real impact meetings and events have on businesses, economies and communities. Meeting and event industry association chapters, corporations, destinations, partners and more are being encouraged to hold events in destinations all around the world to support this day of advocacy. This day, April 12, will spotlight the substantial value derived from business meetings, conferences, conventions, incentive travel, trade shows and exhibitions. At its base, GMID is a grassroots, local media and messaging event. Meetings Mean Business is providing a toolkit and other resources to help you take our messages to the grassroots level and to make newsworthy events which will show how meetings support local economies, connect people and drive positive business results. How can I take part? We are encouraging local chapters of industry organizations and other industry-related companies and partners to band together to host newsworthy events. A list of suggested activities is provided in the toolkit. Information on all the events that have registered with us can be found on the GMID website http://meetingsmeanbusiness.com/gmid.
