On June 12-13, the CityEvents team was invited to participate in the inaugural Ignite Business Event Expo (iBE) that took place at the Direct Energy Centre in Toronto.

iBE is a new, vibrant and forward-thinking forum bringing global planners and suppliers together to conduct business. During the two days there were many interesting conferences about various different subjects, such as the benefits of Social Media made by National Speakers like DR Greg Wells, Olympic Superbodies host, Sonia Verma, Chief Correspondent for The Globe & Mail,  Craig and Marc Kielburger, Co-founders of We Day.

The event was a good opportunity to meet many professionals coming from Canada and all over the world! There were around 200 booths representing the event industry, and hotels and resorts from around the world, helping people find different options and locations for their upcoming events.

 The inaugural business events expo was a unique and stylish show that maximized exhibitor offerings while securing a worthwhile, experiential environment for those who attended. The CityEvents team enjoyed the atmosphere of this intimate show and were able to connect with other industry professionals
