Meetings Africa has grown from a small show into the continent’s premier and best represented business events exhibition since it was first held at the Sandton Convention Centre in 2005.
“Meetings Africa is the most important platform for South African convention bureaus to meet with local, regional and international business event planners and decision makers,” says James Seymour, CEO of the Durban KwaZulu-Natal Convention Bureau.
“Our participation at Meetings Africa continues to be one of the most effective ways for us to directly access key business tourism role players by providing a platform to connect with end clients, intermediaries and fellow exhibitors alike on both a business and social level,“ says Robin D’Allesandro, national marketing manager for the Gearhouse Group of Companies.
Meetings Africa has been instrumental in driving South Africa’s global competitiveness as a business events destination.
Since the first Meetings Africa in 2005, South Africa has seen significant investment in its business events infrastructure including the opening and expansion of a number of convention centres.
Meetings Africa 2015 will be held from February 23-25 2015 at the Sandton Convention Centre in Johannesburg, South Africa.
