The Meetings Space Summer Event in Amsterdam
More than 200 buyers and suppliers descended upon Amsterdam for The Meetings Space’s eagerly-anticipated summer event earlier this month.
One of those there was our very own SpecialProjects Event Coordinator for Brighter, Debbie Richards who said it was one of the best events she has been to.
The latest gathering was hosted at the 5* Anantara Grand Hotel Krasnapolsky and gave delegates the perfect chance to network in new surroundings.
With more than 80 buyers and 120 suppliers presents, and more than 20 meetings, those present also got to see what Amsterdam has to offer.
Debbie said:
“What I liked about it was there was around 20 minutes to meet with each supplier so it wasn’t too intense. It was great, I made some really good contacts. It was all really informative and a good chance to talk to lots of people including Marriott, InterContinental, Leonardo and Dalata Group about the Brighter rebrand.”
On the first evening, delegates mingled over drinks and food before the second day was made up of meetings and then a choice of cheese tasting with wine and port, or a cycling tour.
The day was rounded off with one of TMS’ renowned party nights.
There was also a treasure hunt along the canal treasure using GPS, as well as a presentation on Artificial Intelligence for all delegates.
Debbie added:
“Amsterdam was really good. To see the suppliers, to see the place itself. I sell Barcelona well as I have done an event out there and now I can do the same with Amsterdam.
“It’s got some great historical places. It was a good vibe, really friendly. For knowledge, going to these events can only be a good thing. They have it really well organised. It’s one of the bestI’ve been to.”
