GIBTM 2010 - the Gulf Incentive, Business Travel & Meetings Exhibition, has appointed The Vision Destination Management as the event’s official ground handler.
The company, launched this year, is headed by Ali Abu Monassar who has more than 25 years experience in the sector and was responsible, whilst at Net Group, for overseeing the ground handling of GIBTM since its first edition in 2007.
Graeme Barnett, GIBTM exhibition director, said: “The launch of The Vision Destination Management comes at an exciting time, as international meeting and incentive planners look increasingly at the UAE and the wider Gulf region as stimulating locations for their events.”
Ali Zaid Abu Monassar, chairman of The Vision Destination Management, added: “We are delighted to be appointed as the official ground handler for GIBTM 2010, which is such an important event for Abu Dhabi, the UAE and the Arab Gulf region as a whole.
The meetings industry represents an important segment for our current and future strategies and we will spare no effort to deliver the highest standards to meet the expectations of GIBTM’s international buyers and visitors.”
