Unlike any other similar European event, MEETEX is the only one promoting just Croatia as a meeting and event destination.
The MEETEX live part is scheduled for May where the exhibitors will nominate the best buyers to welcome them in their destinations on three fam trips: in Dubrovnik area, Dalmatia, Istria and Kvarner – all of them gathering in Zagreb, the capital.
The event maintains to cooperate with educational institutions enabling the students a glimpse in the industry and partnering with similar events like Tourism 365.
In addition to its primal goal – business networking – MEETEX continues with educations, knowledge transfers and updates, presenting Croatia as an ultimate meetings and events destination.
