Dear Destinations and Policymakers,

Destinations that lead globally don’t wait for opportunities; they position themselves to secure them. 

The world’s leading destinations partner with IAPCO members to secure and deliver conferences that drive economic growth, strengthen industries, and create lasting impact.

In 2025 alone, IAPCO Accredited members delivered over 23,512 conferences globally, generating more than €17.87 billion in economic impact, supporting local economies and advancing industries worldwide.

And the next wave of opportunity is already building.

A strong pipeline of global events is confirmed for the coming years – many still to secure a destination or venue. These are real events, real budgets, real opportunities, creating a valuable opportunity for destination leaders and policymakers to engage early and influence outcomes for their city.

With rigorous accreditation standards and global expertise, IAPCO connects destinations to opportunity, helping them turn potential into long-term impact.
