Founded in 2009, the World PCO Alliance is comprised of 20 carefully selected professional conference organizers from around ... the world. Together, they pool their resources and experience to provide organizations and associations with the most astute and current practices and tools to effectively plan, promote and execute international events. Thanks to the global diversity of its membership, the Alliance offers associations unparalleled insight into hosting events in different parts of the world as well as the ability to help associations cross-promote events from one country to another, and thus boost attendance. In addition to being leaders in their field, Alliance partners regularly contribute to the continued development of the meetings industry by participating in agencies and organizations on the local level in their respective countries and regions as well as in organizations such as the International Congress and Convention Association (ICCA), IAPCO, Meeting Professionals International (MPI), and the Professional Convention Management Association (PCMA). read more
