25 MICE Industry Trends 2013 Customer tendency to obtain lowest fares and last minute offers Prioritization of accessibility Importance of creating new products such as opportunity dates, workshops over a martini or barbecues on the beach The Spanish MICE sector maintains its third position, without major competitors in service, price and product despite the great effort of Turkey Downward trends in budgets opens the doors to new technology and multi-site events Costs continue to have an important role in decision-making from the client s side Sustainability is very important, but has not yet become a decisive factor Source: IE Industry Club

26 MICE Industry Trends 2013 Compliance Compliance issues have strong influence or are increasingly important for 50% of German MICE planners Crucial in pharmaceutical industry. Also in automobile, gov. organisation, NGOs, banks, insurance and US companies Luxury hotels and long haul avoided Infotainment rather than entertainment. Pure incentive programmes rejected Destination with a marked leisure character not selected Planning constricted by rules, political correctness and shorter budgets More effort necessary for planning / organisation Source: tmf MMM 2013
