E-Book. A new initiative from Incon, an international partnership of conference, event and destination companies, sees an expert guide to global meeting and event planning launch this week at IMEX America.

Aimed at junior meeting planners based in North America, the Incon E-Book entitled ‘’International Meetings: Ten Steps to Success’’ harnesses the wealth of experience which the ten Incon partners have in planning and delivering international events. Sharing their expertise and insight, this ‘beginners guide’ sets out useful tips for holding successful meetings outside North America. Just some of the areas addressed by partners in the document are cross cultural etiquette, currency and tax issues, visa requirements and security concerns.

Commenting on the launch of the E-Book Angela Guillemet, Executive Director, Incon said ‘’It’s no secret that planning an international meeting presents a unique set of challenges. Between language barriers and time zone changes, it can be difficult to communicate with a supplier never mind get to grips with the myriad details which need to be considered and actioned’’.
