IMEX America initial reviews are in, and the business conducted and connections made in Las Vegas brought international meeting professionals together during the three-day trade show and exhibition for what many attendees call a resounding success. As strategic partner and premier education provider, MPI delivered on the new rules of engagement. What began in Orlando during WEC 2011 was front and center in Las Vegas.

The MPI experience began on Smart Monday, with a slate of professional development that focused on successful adaptation, creativity and relevancy in today’s business environment. Hosted buyers attendees were at the day-long exploration of how to meet differently, where the new rules of engagement came to life:

· Courage to Act, Innovate and Inspire To Make a Difference: The opening session from Cheryl Cran, CSP, led the call for attendees to employ strategies for embracing change in the industry and use it across generations.

· Proving Value and Performance: Mary Boone and an expert panel of professionals discussing the intersection of budgeting, tech, learning formats and more as it relates to executing the best events for both attendees and clients.

· Embracing Technology to Enrich Connections: MPI delivered on future trends in technology and integrating virtual events into a meeting portfolio.

· Positive Effects Economically, Socially and Environmentally: The initial findings of Phase 1 of the Leeds Metropolitan global CSR study debuted.

The MPI team is already thinking about what to deliver to members and attendees at IMEX America 2012. Will you be there?
