The EC Collective will hold its second annual FAM trip from 18th to 20th September 2009 – kicking off National Meetings Week in style.
The weekend, which will be Monopoly themed, will once again provide agency buyers with the chance to see a different side of London.
Now in its second year, The EC Collective, is a Barbican led initiative, bringing together arts venues, conference centres, accommodation providers and unique buildings within the Square Mile . The EC collective’s goal is to raise the profile of the Square Mile from business events and meetings.
Anthony Hyde, head of corporate sales, Barbican: “The EC Collective’s first year brought together a host of suppliers within the Square Mile, we are working more closely than ever before, passing recommendations back and forth and most importantly creating our own destination, capable of competing on the global event industry stage. As home to some of the world’s greatest businesses it is entirely fitting that the Square Mile should be recognised as a leading destination for business events – the EC Collective provides that outlet and public façade.”
