IAPCO at FIEXPO Latin America 2026

IAPCO will be participating in FIEXPO Latin America 2026, taking place in Costa Rica from 8–11 June 2026.

IAPCO CEO Martin Boyle will once again be in attendance, reinforcing IAPCO’s role in championing professional standards, knowledge exchange and meaningful industry collaboration across the global meetings industry.

FIEXPO Latin America provides an important platform for dialogue between political leaders, destinations and key industry stakeholders, helping to highlight the value and impact of the meetings and events sector across the region and beyond. Shortly following IMEX, IAPCO’s participation will include engagement with mayors and ministers of tourism at the Politicians Forum, networking with industry professionals from across the LATAM region, and promoting the Jorge Castex Emerging Leaders Scholarship programme.

IAPCO’s presence in Costa Rica will bring together the strength of its leadership, including the CEO, Council members and Ambassadors, alongside the region’s valued members and partners, who form an essential part of the IAPCO community. Together, they will support important conversations on the role of professional congress organisation and the collective contribution of the IAPCO community in advancing the meetings industry.
