In 2020 we look forward to inviting senior decision makers and buyers from the Asian Pacific meetings, incentives and event industry to take part in our Hosted Buyer Program.
AIME Hosted Buyers enjoy all the benefits of our program and events, and importantly, connect with the best exhibitors through our carefully organised pre-scheduled appointments.
Registration to attend AIME 2020 as a Hosted Buyer is now open.
The AIME Hosted Buyers are committed to attending 32 pre-scheduled appointments. Dedicated, carefully matched appointments that will deliver potential commerce with every meeting.
In 2019 AIME introduced sophisticated software that seamlessly matches buyers’ needs, desired destinations and budgets against exhibitors’ unique products, services and capacity.
Buyers and exhibitors are able to set their meetings preferences so that we could align the needs of the Buyers against the services and destinations of the Exhibitors. All contracted Hosted Buyers had 60% of their diaries allocated with the matched appointments. Once the diaries were opened, buyers had the freedom to set the rest of their diaries with select exhibitors, destinations and media.
Contact details for each meeting are shared, so you can start building your business relationships early and get down to business when you meet at AIME.
