Applications to become a Hospitality Partner in 2008 are now available.

To be able to attend the Annual Conference, Hospitality Partners need to secure a registration spot in one of the following three ways. Please note that there may be a $1350 registration fee for the conference.

1. Annual Selection. The special selection process for the 2008 Annual Conference was conducted on Thursday, November 15, 2007, by members of the Hospitality Partner Committee. Those chosen were notified by email and the list is posted on the FICP website under "Annual Conference Selection Process".

2. Sponsorship. A minimum $5000 will guarantee a registration spot. More information is available on the sponsorship page.

3. Recruitment. If you recruit two new meeting planners who join the association you will receive one registration spot. If you recruit one new meeting planner who also attends the conference you will receive one registration spot. (You may not pay their membership dues or registration fees as this violates the FICP code of ethics.)
