visit.brussels announced today that it has been ranked number 9 on Cvent’s inaugural list of the top 25 cities for meetings and events in Europe for 2015. Cvent, a leading cloud-based enterprise event management platform, developed the ranking based on meeting and event booking activity in the Cvent Supplier Network. Cvent sourced more than €7.3 billion euros in meetings and events through its marketplace in 2014.
“While the competition is fierce in the sector of meetings and events, the numerous advantages Brussels has to offer are increasingly recognized worldwide”, says Patrick Bontinck, CEO of visit.brussels. “After being ranked second in the world for international conferences according to UIA and 11th for the number of international associations’ itinerant conferences according to ICCA, the Cvent List reflects once more the constant reinforcement of the international position of our capital.”
Cvent evaluated more than 2,500 cities in Europe featured on the Cvent Supplier Network to compile the first annual list.
