Happy National Meetings Industry Day!

Happy National Meetings Industry Day!

National Meetings Industry Day (NMID) is an educational event held every year by Meeting Professionals International (MPI)—the global community that is shaping and defining the future of the meeting and event industry. The organization has chapters across Canada and, on NMID, the chapters celebrate the day with a variety of educational and networking activities focusing on the significance of the Canadian meetings industry and the value of meetings to the broader business community.

At Speakers’ Spotlight, we contribute to our meetings industry community in the best way we know how—by providing outstanding speakers to attract, engage, educate, inspire, and entertain event audiences! Here are some examples of the amazing speakers we’ve sponsored at events throughout Canada today, and over the past several months:
