Connect16 and Connect17 was a live 360 view over Ireland’s event industry, featuring 290 event suppliers from hotels, venues, entertainers, activity providers, artisan producers and the latest in event technology and design.

2016 was the first time an event of this nature took place in Ireland as a showcase of Ireland and the extraordinary creative offerings that the Irish business tourism industry has to offer, by assembling the greatest possible number of event suppliers under one roof.

The core objective of the events was to position Ireland as a key destination for international events. The events aimed to collectively connect all stakeholders in Ireland with the global business tourism marketplace, provide an experiential showcase for buyers of Ireland’s unique culture, venues, music, food, artisan producers, activity providers and attract national & international associations, academics and consultant doctors to the events with the aim of motivating them to bid to bring associations/ business conferences to Ireland. The event also provided industry professionals with an opportunity to network, build relationships with other industry professionals, share experiences and educate each other to further develop standards within the industry.
