    EIBTM 2011 Technology Watch Award

    Having won top prize at this year’s EIBTM Technology Watch Award, Mike Sorgani, vice president of sales for ITN International, was keen to share with One+ reporter Rob Cotter why meeting industry professionals shouldn’t shy away from the latest technology and how it can bring tangible benefits to their operations. Specializing in near field communication and how it can revolutionize the meeting industry, Sorgani knows a thing or two about the real difference between a truly useful technological innovation and the latest gizmo. Check out the video to see what he had to say to Cotter and a quick peek of his latest favorite toy.

    Measurement Toolbox Resources, Now At Your Fingertips

    We've reached the next step in the Business Value of Meetings research initiative, known as BVOM. Just last week, during EIBTM in Barcelona, we introduced the BVOM toolbox to the industry and we’re excited about the reception so far!

    The toolbox is a collection of resources findings that are intended to help professionals overcome the five barriers to measurement and reporting implementation. The five initial whitepapers serve as the foundation for the toolbox, which is an ever-growing resource for planners and suppliers. Each piece is dynamic and delivers key takeaways that guide BVOM practices.

    MPI will continue adding toolbox pieces, such as instructional videos, glossaries, case studies and more, beginning this month. Members will have unlimited access to each tool as part of their investment with MPI; non-members professionals are able to purchase.

    As you familiarize yourself with the new BVOM toolbox resources, reading and learning from the whitepapers, which of the takeaways given are you looking forward to implementing?
