The Thought Leaders Summit is an invite only opportunity designed exclusively for established leaders in the industry. Participants engage in executive-level education powered by the MPI Academy and become a part of landmark outcomes in event and meeting planning. Program includes up to 10 hours of EIC compliant education and participation in research project, funded through a grant from the MPI Foundation, Expectations.
As a planner, you will receive a full conference registration that allows you to participate in all of the events and education offered during the conference. You will meet face-to-face with suppliers you want to do business with during hosted buyer hours. Plus, there are no group appointments.
You can advance your career with education sessions available throughout the conference. Attend sessions to earn clock hours to certify or recertify for your CMP. Earning clock hours attending a conference is often less expensive than taking individual classes elsewhere.
Participating as a supplier in the MPI Exchange allows you to fill your pipeline and meet face-to-face with your choice of qualified planners with real buying power. The ultimate benefit is doing business smarter, faster and better.
The appointment will provide ample time for both parties to connect. Here are some tips on how to best prepare:
The cost per appointment is minimal when you factor in the following. You are meeting with qualified planners that have a business for you and want to meet with you. All planner applications are reviewed by a committee to ensure they are bringing quality business to the appointment.
It doesn't matter if your brand employs three hundred or thirty; large and small businesses alike can benefit from participating. We've got planners perfect for you.
There are no group appointments included in the MPI Exchange program at MPI’s events. IMEX America will pre-schedule your group appointments.
MPI is a nonprofit association and being a nonprofit Sarbanes’s Oxley (SOX) does not apply to our organization. MPI does not have any issues with SOX because we are not receiving any services/goods from planners in return for your participation in this program. All participating planners are hosted at MPI’s expense and not at the suppliers.
