Destination Dublin for Management World
03 September 2010
TM Forum announced today that after eleven years in Nice, France, its Management World conference will move to Dublin's new Convention Center - the CCD - May 23-26, 2011. TM Forum says Dublin and the CCD will provide the perfect business environment for Management World attendees-a leading capital city that is easy to get to, easy to do business in and with a reputation for hospitality that is second to none.
As a vibrant European hub for global technology companies, including major communications service providers, IT organizations and large online businesses such as Google, Facebook and eBay, Dublin is a natural fit for the increasing scope of the industry's premier conference, it says.
"One of the keys to growing an event in today's market is to remain one-step ahead - to keep it fresh, relevant and invigorating," commented Nik Willetts, senior vice president, Communications, TM Forum. "Dublin and the CCD offer the ideal platform for Management World's continued growth by bringing together the right audience and tackling the major issues and opportunities facing the industry today. Management World is widely regarded as the meeting place of the industry, and this move will make networking and doing business even easier for our attendees."
The Convention Center Dublin is the world's first carbon-neutral conference facility. This purpose-built venue allows for a range of new sponsorship opportunities available to TM Forum members, with significant support already shown by long-standing sponsors of the event.
In addition to a new location, a number of innovative features are under development for the 2011 conference. "Our highly successful Executive Program will expand in 2011, providing a unique forum for senior executives from across the industry to network with their peers," added Willetts. "We're also creating new set interactive presentation formats and exclusive content. In short, Management World 2011 will be our best conference yet!"
