A MESSAGE FROM THE EDITOR
"With the battle between budgets and expectations becoming ever more tense, incentive travel planners have never had as many plates to keep spinning as they have right now. Clients are demanding more novelty, more luxury and more sustainability, and keeping on top of all of these needs can be challenging to say the least.
That’s why it’s so important to make sure that you’re up to date with the latest industry best practice, as well as keeping up with the current landscape of venues, destinations and suppliers. The best place to do that is C&IT’s Incentive Forum, where we’ll be bringing together some of the industry’s brightest minds for two days of content and curated networking.
Following last year, we’re keeping things fresh with another change of venue, and delegates will get to experience the plush facilities of Sussex’s South Lodge Hotel & Spa. Secure your place today!"
