Meetings Newsletter for Germany

Germany will soon host football fans from all over the world, the motto in June and July being ,A time to make friends™'. The FIFA World Cup™ 2006 kicks off on 9th June 2006 with the opening game in Munich's new Allianz Arena. Right now, however, Germany is in the grips of Olympic Winter Games fever, while Fasching, Fasenacht and Karneval are being joyfully enacted on the streets of many German towns and cities. February is a month full of fun and good humour, a time for letting your hair down, for celebrating together and looking at life from its lighter side - just one more reason for organising your MICE events in pre-Springtime Germany.

Corporate events are, in the meantime, firmly anchored in the portfolios of many companies once again. Growth figures for IMEX 2006 reflect the current optimism of the meetings industry. You can read more about this in our current features section along with news, special offers and updates from the German meetings, incentives, conferences and events industry.

With best wishes,

Your GCB-Team
