Hosted EDGE Seminars
All of our EDGE Seminars are delivered by an IAPCO Member, in partnership with their local CVB. Partnering with an IAPCO Member to host or deliver an EDGE Seminar includes commercial, media and strategic opportunities, each of which provides levels of engagement and connectivity across our global community.

Organise an EDGE Seminar
IAPCO caters for groups or organisations who wish to stage a hosted IAPCO Seminar in their own country or a particular geographical area on a specific topic/theme. Seminars can be linked to other industry functions/trade shows, or be stand-alone seminars, specially structured to suit the participants’ needs and the local conference climate.
The programme is prepared in consultation with the IAPCO Training Academy and the local host. IAPCO will send a team of experts as appropriate to the seminar.
