+ Vienna is one of the world's leading meeting cities, with some 3,300 events each year. A cultural metropolis, music capital, event heaven, with a congenial blend of imperial nostalgia & dynamic lifestyle, a stroll around Vienna can be like a journey back in time to its Imperial past. Vienna boasts 27 palaces and 163 other stately homes. Vienna is a safe, green, clean city. It is also a compact city that makes for easy logistic planning and it can be reached easily and quickly thanks to its central location at the heart of Europe. It offers a unique blend of historic charm and cool modernity with three conference centres, some 90 hotels with conference facilities, as well as more than 50 historic, modern and incomparable event locations. Vienna is for the fifth year running ranked number 1 with regard to the quality of life. For eight years in succession it has also been ranked number 1 worldwide by ICCA and also takes number 1 spot worldwide in the 2012 Smart Cities Index.+ Throughout history Istanbul has been at the crossroads of civilisations and something of a meeting point. It offers its congress product through seductive orientalism. Congress facilities are too numerous to set out here, but the city is easily capable of hosting the largest congress events. The main advantage of Istanbul is that it has re-organised its meetings industry and taken advantage of its strategic location at the crossroads between Asia and Europe. This is further complemented by exceptional air accessibility, with 50 airlines flying into the city daily. Cosmopolitan Istanbul has come back in full splendour and has become one of the top global congress cities. The destination is back in the limelight and is the new global success story. We believe that the Istanbul meetings industry will be the new congress success story, for it has already fulfilled almost every condition and at the same time it is still relatively inexpensive.
