This collaboration underscores the commitment of both organisations to the growth and success of the meetings industry in Latin America.

During the recent FIEXPO Latin America 2024 in Panama City, a conversation between IAPCO leadership and FIEXPO Exhibitions Group Directors led to a significant agreement: IAPCO will offer its renowned WebEDGE Congress Management Course on a complementary basis to a number of PCOs and DMCs within the FIEXPO Latin America participants ecosystem.

This partnership is a testament to the dedication of IAPCO and FIEXPO Exhibitions Group to advancing education and professional development in Latin America. By providing this resource, they aim to equip the region’s professionals with the knowledge and skills needed to excel in the global events industry.

Martin Boyle, CEO at IAPCO, said: “We are thrilled to partner with FIEXPO Exhibitions Group in offering this educational opportunity. Professional development is crucial to the continued growth and success of the meetings industry in Latin America, and we believe this course will be instrumental in building the region’s capacity to host international events.”
