The flagship global industry event has designed a programme specifically for association buyers wanting to make most of their time when in Barcelona, 29 November-1 December this year.
What is My Association | My Club?
My Association |My Club is an exclusive programme designed to serve the needs of the association meeting planner. Fully hosted by ibtm world, every association buyer who attends the exhibition in Barcelona will be able to take advantage of the many benefits – and they are all FREE. The show’s organisers asked international association buyers what they wanted; and My Association |My Club is the perfect platform to get the most out of ibtm world 2016.

Why will it benefit your job?
Introduced 2 years ago, My Association | My Club was created because association buyers said the benefits of ibtm world were so great they wanted time to explore, experience and enjoy every aspect of the exhibition. Inspired by that knowledge, a special programme was designed to open up more opportunities for buyers and give them the best of both worlds. By opening the show floor to everyone on the association programme, ibtm world 2016 has put together the right combination of pre-scheduled appointments as required, as well as the time to make connections by dropping by stands and opening up conversations. They’ve also built on the need to talk peer to peer and have included that in the many options in the programme this year.
