LIVE 2008 Orlando
Welcome to Plan Your Meetings LIVE 2008 Orlando. These pages are your first look at an event we hope will reshape the way you look at yourself, your business and the meeting planning industry.
Budgets, ROI, more and better for less… we could go on and on, but we know you’ve heard it all. Instead, we’re going to show you the reason you got into meeting planning in the first place. The theme of the day is “Take Your Meetings from Ordinary… to Extraordinary” and that’s what we’re planning to do for you. Our keynote presentation and tradeshow are designed to help recharge your creative juices, delivering ideas and resources that will ensure memorable, successful events while meeting budget realities.
Start here. We’ve created these pages to help you plan your day and connect with other planners, exhibitors and our staff. You can share other conference experiences and ideas in a blog, and set meetings with exhibitors and attendees. Get involved and have fun. Be sure to sign up early!
