  • A true All-Inclusive experience, where your only concern is getting to the port — we’ll take care of everything else.

  • Personalized guidance to help you make the most of each One-to-One meeting and maximize your commercial opportunities.

  • Post-event access to a private platform (MyPlace) with all supplier contacts, catalogues, agenda, visual content, and everything you need to turn your insights into results.

FAQs


  • Are all on-board expenses covered?
    • Yes, the organization covers accommodation, gastronomy and onboard experiences for suppliers & buyers. Buyers will participate in exclusive experiences in each destination during the hours they are off the ship.
  • How many meetings does GMF guarantee on board?
    • The number of One to one meetings you get on each chosen route can be affected by multiple factors, but the organization guarantees you between 14 and 24 on Route 2; and between 24 and 34 on Route 1. But of course, you will be able to interact with all the suppliers on board in the multiple activities together and private spaces on board the ship, reserved exclusively for you and your conversations.
  • Do Global MICE Forums meetings represent a good ROI compared to other business generation activities?
    • Attendee satisfaction rates historically above 85% and repeat buyers above 80% reveal that activities like this save effort, time and money for the majority of companies that have placed their trust in us. By gathering in the same space (on a ship and through a Mediterranean route) you can access a set of buyers with a potential difficult to match that is almost impossible to find in the same time and place. In the case of GMF On Board, you find buyers with multiple interests and great investment capacity in the whole geographical area of the Mediterranean.
  • What happens with the information and data of the attendees afterwards?
    • Global MICE Forums offers you a personalized digital space, GMF MyPlace, where the most important materials and content from each edition are stored: attendee directory, videos, presentations, photo albums, etc. Always available for you to consult whenever you need.
