This new edition has been extensively revised and updated to reflect recent developments in business events, including:
  • Five new chapters on business events destination marketing, knowledge, sustainability, ethics and technology
  • New ‘It’s my job’ voice boxes offering practical insights from people employed in the business events industry
  • A wide range of new case studies illustrating business events throughout the world, including emerging business events destinations such as Russia and the Middle East
Written in an accessible yet analytical manner, Business Events is essential reading for all students of events, tourism and hospitality management.
