GMID: The Power of Meetings & Connections
On April 3, we'll join the industry in celebrating Global Meetings Industry Day, advocating for the value of business meetings and events.
In 2024, RBC Place London hosted 187 events, contributing over $20 million in local economic impact and attracting tens of thousands of guests and delegates from around the world to stay, eat, shop and play in London.
On average, conference delegates spend four times more than other visitors to the city on a daily basis, so bringing in large-scale, multi-day events generates significant economic benefits for London.
