Statistics of EMIF 2008

Objective :

In just six years, the "EMIF- the European Meetings Industry Fair" in Brussels has become an indispensable and ideal platform for you as a supplier of goods and services directly related to the Meetings Industry.

Our objective for 2008 is to make the fair's programme even more coherent. In addition, easyFairs, which recently took over EMIF, is heavily investing in database acquisition for the qualitative development of new target groups, and the provision of qualitative content for the various target groups.

Target group :

Alongside meeting planners, congress & fair organisers, and associations, EMIF now also focuses on a fourth target group: public bodies, embassies and social, military, educational or religious associations. As in previous years, we can count on the support of all major associations in the meetings industry (MPI, SITE, BAPCO, ICCA, etc.).

The large majority of companies and associations that visit EMIF do not leave the Benelux in general and Belgium in particular to visit any of the other fairs organised abroad.

Central location :

The Benelux and Brussels in particular is regarded as a European hub, a privileged and attractive business cluster, and as such provides outstanding opportunities for you to expand your business. Brussels is also one of Europe's largest business districts because it is home to the headquarters of many Belgian and international companies and the European institutions. In addition, a whole string of (inter)national organisations and associations are located in Brussels. In short, a very large group of buyers of meetings and incentives.

Testimonials EMIF 2007

Félicitations à toute l'équipe pour cet excellent travail !
Pierre Alderson, Liège Congrès

Over the years, EMIF has established itself as THE forum for the meetings industry here at the crossroads of Europe. It is a showcase for the Brussels meetings industry and creates real synergies among the professionals who gather around Brussels International in the now famous "Brussels Zone". The traditional Brussels International EMIF Networking Evening is also one which no exhibitor or Hosted Buyer will want to miss. We look forward to further developing our win-win partnership with EMIF over the years to come.
Hervé Bosquet, Brussels Convention Bureau

Wij zijn zeer tevreden over deze eerste deelname en komen zeker terug !
Ilse van den Berghe, TMAB Business Events

Over the last few years, the EMIF fair has become increasingly important for our organization. Thanks to the dedication of the Conevex staff, we have been able to explore different scenarios and formulas that work best. Their patience with every individual exhibitor is both exemplary and admirable. They think along the same lines and try to find the best possible location in line with your own expectations. We believe EMIF merits its success: they have the motivation, dedication and the "can do" attitude.
Kathleen Bertier, Congresbureau Brugge

Mes 10 partenaires niçois sont tous prêts à revenir pour la prochaine édition, donc nous réservons, dès à présent, le même espace d'exposition. L'EMIF reste un salon très important pour nous au niveau des professionnels belges. Nous avons eu 85 contacts dont 35 avec des demandes concrètes et cotations pour un avenir très prochain et nous espérons quelques concrétisations.
