EIBTM claims 20% increase in attendance

EIBTM, the three-day global meetings exhibition that took place in Barcelona in November, has claimed a record-breaking attendance.

Subject to an official audit, visitors and hosted buyers topped 6,900, up more than 20% on the 2006 figure.

Paul Kennedy, group exhibition director at the Reed Travel Exhibitions event, said: "Seeing the number of business appointments planned prior to the event hit a record of 41,500-plus, we knew it would be busy."
