IBTM Connect to showcase industry knowledge online
IBTM Events has launched a new online platform, IBTM Connect.
The service is a resource hub for business events professionals to access and share knowledge and practical guidance.
The launch is part of a three-step plan to keep exhibitors, hosted buyers and the wider industry connected as they collectively navigate the impact of Covid-19.
IBTM Connect will host regularly updated content, including insightful webinars and videos from key industry professionals, ways to virtually network with industry peers and news and updates to prepare for recovery.
Commenting on the launch, Shane Hannam, portfolio director, IBTM Events, said: “We recognise that this is an unprecedented period of challenge for our industry and we are absolutely committed to continuing to provide support and education for our peers.
“Our connections and industry partnerships mean that we are uniquely positioned to create and curate high quality content from around the globe that can serve to provide insights and tangible benefits during this time.
