Visitors are encouraged to sign up early to benefit from pre-show news updates, free entrance and fast-track entry on arrival, and preferential rates for selected hotels in Beijing.
CIBTM provides a dedicated three-day business platform focused on the rapidly expanding and developing incentive, business travel and meetings market in China.
