ICCA Hosted Buyer Programme

If you organise, influence or make budgetary decisions for international business travel, meetings, incentive travel, international conventions, product launches or staff training then you could be eligible to attend tradeshows as a Hosted Buyer.

The Hosted Buyer Programme is available to the top industry buyers from associations, corporations and agencies organising international events. ICCA is involved in Hosted Buyer Programmes at IMEX, IBTM and FIEXPO. Each year ICCA will also support a number of associations attending the ICCA Congress.
