The recent 2017 Annual Conference of the International Association of Convention Centres (AIPC) General Assembly in Sydney, Australia, has brought the decision to host the 2019 AIPC Conference at Flanders Meeting & Convention Center’s new facilities in Antwerp, Belgium.

The General Assembly’s theme, which accompanies the Annual Conference, embraced a series of topics ranging from potential impact of current geopolitical challenges to more immediately practical issues such as cyber-security, evolving client expectations and emerging competition in the industry.

Washington Convention Centre in Washington DC, USA as Vice President, as well as a few others to complete the 7-member AIPC Board of Directors.
