VisitScotland Business Events Stand
Article Published 25/01/2022
As the global business events industry continues on its journey to recovery from the pandemic, now more than ever it is crucial that we resume meeting new and existing clients in a face-to-face environment. In-person events are vital for growing our knowledge and our relationships.
Each year, the VisitScotland Business Events team attends and exhibits at several of the largest exhibitions and tradeshows for the business events sector to promote the country as a desirable destination for events.
The team is already in the planning stages for 2022 shows and has a number of opportunities available for our industry partners to join team Scotland on stand. These shows are a fantastic opportunity to promote your businesses and Scotland to high-level meeting, incentive, conference, and event buyers in key markets including North America, Europe, and UK. Below is a list of tradeshows and exhibitions that VisitScotland Business Events will exhibit at in 2022.
If you are interested in joining VisitScotland Business Events as a partner for these shows, the opportunities will be posted on the Marketing Opportunities section of our website and will also be included in our newsletter. If you haven't already done so, you can sign up to the newsletter here. If you have any questions on any of the above events, please contact Lindsay Hume lindsay.hume@visitscotland.com for further information.
