IAGTO Connect is principally an online meetings event exclusive to IAGTO member companies and organizations around the world. In 2022 we will be focusing in particular on Asia, Oceania, the Indian Ocean, the Gulf States, South Africa and North Africa.
Three days of meetings will be combined with announcements, promotions, presentations and interviews on our TV News Channel and News Bulletin.
22-Hour Access
IAGTO Connect is a three-day event open for 22 hours on each of the first two days, allowing you to schedule your meetings at times convenient for you, wherever in the world you are located.
Dual Time-Zone Diaries
The good news is that your Appointments Diary will show your meeting time in your Local Time as well as the official event time which, for 2022, will be Thailand/Indochina Time (ICT) to highlight our focus on our Asian member destinations.
Blocking out Meeting Times
Of course, with the Appointment Diary being open 22 hours a day, you will be able to very easily block out all times that are not going to be convenient for you for meetings. It is entirely up to you when and on what days you accept and schedule meetings, and how many you have.
