Testimonials

““We attend over 100 MICE trade events per year and the M&I Forums are the best of all. We got a better ROI from last year’s Americas Forum than any other trade show we have EVER attended.”

Reggie AggarwalCvent - USA

“One the best events I’ve ever participated in as a supplier, with good meetings and great networking.”

Attila Laszlo Mondorf Parc Hotel Conference & Spa

“What a great couple of days! Our first M&I Forum... Where to start? From the amazing organisation to some great meetings, we will definitely be looking to join more of these events in the future. M&I Forums, you have set the bar very high for other events! Thank you again.”

Henika Patel Caesars Entertainment

“Attending M&I Forums is always a pleasure. Not only because you get to meet a lot of potential clients, but after a spending a Forum with them, having activities and networking events to connect, some of them become your friends rather than your clients. Looking forward to the next one.”
