Following the official announcement made during the 56th ICCA Congress in Prague, we proudly announce that AIM Group, together with Firenze Convention Bureau, has won the bid to host the 2019 ICCA Meeting Management Sector Client/Suppliers Business Workshop (Florence, Italy, 28 February -2 March 2019) to be held at the Firenze Fiera Congress & Exhibition Centre.


ICCA, the International Congress and Convention Association, invited members from both the Meeting Management Sector and the Destination Marketing Sector to present their candidacy as Local Host for a first-time workshop for only 15 PCO Executives, together with a decision-maker from a carefully selected client.

AIM Group International presented their bid, together with the Firenze Convention Bureau, official partner of the Municipality of Florence. It was thought to offer this specialised audience an exclusive experience in the refined and renovated destination of Florence.


Francesca Manzani, Business Manager, AIM Group Florence Office, says “After having served ICCA as Board Member for more than 6 years, I am fully aware of the Association’s focus on raising professional standards in the international meeting industry. So, being a vehicle of this educational strategy makes me feel extremely proud”.

“The strong synergy between the main MICE players of the region and the partnership with the Municipality of Florence make our destination a preferred choice for conferences and events. After 10 years, ICCA will find Florence an important competitor with other European destinations and this result proves that teamwork with AIM Group has been one of the keys to our success. affirmed Carlotta Ferrari, Director, Firenze Convention Bureau.
