Welcome to the EIBTM:review from MEETINGS:review!
A message from Paul Kennedy MBE, Group Exhibitions Director, EIBTM

First and foremost, I would like to thank those of you who joined EIBTM in Barcelona. As has been well documented in the industry media, EIBTM 2008 was judged to be the best ever and your continued support of the event is very much appreciated by Reed Travel Exhibitions and the meetings industry team that I have the privilege of leading to deliver the event on the industry's behalf.

While the event was taking place, I commissioned MEETINGS:review, the official web TV partner of the IBTM family, to gather some interviews and commentary from the event and the subsequent output is available on this page for all of you to enjoy. Simply run your mouse over the images to the left and right hand side of the page to find out more and watch the various interviews and reports that MEETINGS:review collected from the event.

I hope you have been able to bookmark EIBTM 2009 (1st - 3rd December) and if you would like to find out more about the event, simply click on the image on the far right of this page. If you are also interested in our international portfolio of IBTM's spanning the globe throughout the year, please click on the rotating images for each event immediately below the EIBTM tower.

I look forward to welcoming you at our events in the future where the world continues to meet. It only leaves me to extend our thanks to the sponsors of the EIBTM:review, Abu Dhabi Tourism Authority and Etihad Airways, along with all the participants who graciously gave their time to participate in the interviews conducted.

Happy viewing!
