Get on Board With Bournemouth at Confex

Conference and event organisers are being invited to 'Get on Board' for business in Bournemouth at this year's International Confex, Europe's leading show for event professionals (12-14 Feb 2008, Earls Court).

The BIC (Bournemouth International Centre) and BICB (Bournemouth International Conference Bureau) will be on stand ( B338 ) promoting the business facilities that Bournemouth has to offer within a premier environment - taking inspiration from the surf theme and the development of Europe's first surf reef.

The BIC/BICB stand is designed to stand out from the crowd of other venues and destinations at the show with its distinctively trendy surf theme, explains Lisa Ashurst, BIC's sales manager:

"Attracting business to a venue is about so much more than having the right type of venue facilities. For people attending events of all types, the whole destination experience is very important and it's where Bournemouth has the extra special something and the surf reef is definitely going to be an extra reason to do business with us," she says.
