About us

Meeting & Incentive Forums are run by Worldwide Events, a division of Big Worldwide, a global travel, technology, events and media company. Big Worldwide was founded in 1995 and is headquartered in London.

The first Meeting & Incentive Forum was launched in 2006 in London to serve a marketplace that demanded a fresh approach.

Each event is based on face-to-face business with pre-scheduled appointments booked by buyers according to their requirements. There is also plenty of dedicated time for networking through innovative and fun social activities.

Worldwide Events also runs the Business Travel Forums, events that introduce independent hotels, hotel chains and serviced apartment providers to corporate travel managers.

Big Worldwide also owns and operates Great Hotels of the World a hotel sales and marketing alliance providing a range of services and innovative technology solutions to over 1,000 hotels worldwide.
