Dear ICCA friends,
We hope you’ve had a great start of the new year, that you feel energised and cannot wait to join us in Hasselt, Belgium for The art of reinventing – ICCA France Benelux chapter summit.
What is the treat the Belgian Limburg Convention Bureau, Tourism Flanders and the education committee have prepared for you in Hasselt?
Well, here is a short sneak-peek into the programme, which is now finalised and can be viewed HERE.
We have great and diverse speakers who will provide us with fresh ideas, great insights and learnings, and who are addressing the topics voted by you in Houston at the ICCA Congress. Also, we will allow enough time to (re)connect with colleagues and for the networking.
One of the session voted on was also F****d up bids, during which we share the challenges we had during the bid process, mistakes we have made, things we have learned.
Don’t forget to submit your story before 4 Feb to Edoardo Guglielmino from the education committee
For the colleagues attending for the first time also the First time attendee session will be held so you will have ‘a soft landing’ into ICCA and the ICCA France Benelux Chapter Summit.
Have you registered for the ICCA France Benelux Summit?

What else has ICCA France Benelux Chapter been busy with?
We are really encouraged by the support we are receiving and want to thank you.
After our last newsletter, we are happy to share that two of our Dutch members have volunteered and joined the education committee. We are delighted to warmly welcome Catherine Kalamidas from Rotterdam Partners and Charles Beckers from MECC Maastricht. We look forward to your ideas and awesome contributions. When taking on the role, Catherine said: “I am excited to collaborate with all the colleagues in the committee, as we curate a body of learnings and experiences which will hopefully support the entire Benelux chapter’s drive toward excellence in our industry!” And Charles added: “I am very pleased to be part of the Chapter’s Educational Committee in order to portrait my ideas and share my knowledge with Peers from the BeNeLux”
Also we made some progress with the online community. We are pleased to announce that we have launched the ICCA France Benelux Chapter LinkedIn group. We invite you to join us, share and engage! Online community can only be successful if we are all active contributors.
Thank you for your support, stay engaged and join us in Hasselt!
Elisabeth and Tadeja
