IBTM World gathers 2,500 destinations, hotels, event technology providers and suppliers from more than 150 countries at Fira Barcelona Gran Via. The three day expo pairs a marketplace of pre scheduled buyer meetings with a future focused conference programme on the business events industry. An Ignite track gives startups a route into the meetings and events sector, alongside sessions from the Association Leaders Forum and Exceptional Experiences programme. It is organised by RX, part of the RELX group.
