Here's a short video summarising the char.gy team performance at the recent valuable Interchange Strategic Transport Bodies event held at the stunning Manchester Central venue. At the event, Shayne Rees presented on stage and we hosted workshops to empower local authorities with knowledge in scaling reliable, convenient, low-cost public EV charging. We shared insights into how to create a cost-effective scalable public network to provide more charge points, ensuring access to the most people without driveways in the quickest time, paving the way for an easy and just transition to EVs. The feedback we've received confirmed our positive appeal for creating long-term partnerships to achieve the necessary greater outcomes of transformative change towards clean air and a sustainable environment.

Event posts don't have to be dull, and video and animation content doesn't have to break the bank. Leveraging tools like CapCut, which provide extensive capabilities for free, as showcased in this video, offers an excellent avenue to infuse vitality and narrative flair into ordinary LinkedIn content, such as simple event recaps. #marketing #contentcreation #videoproduction #animation

Every year IMEX Frankfurt is a great opportunity for VGF - Pre-financing & Guarantee Fund to be present. Not only to be able talk to new, potential organizers of international conferences in the Netherlands, but also to strengthen our relationships with existing partners of the NBTC Netherlands Board of Tourism & Conventions. Meeting new people, seeing familiar faces in the Netherlands Booth and having conversations about how VGF can offer help always brings a smile to the face of Paul Gruijthuijsen. But it's not just about explaining the benefits of this special and globally unique instrument called VGF that people appreciate so much. The fact that the Netherlands offers the opportunity to reduce financial risks is viewed with some envy by fellow countries and destinations, and it gives the Netherlands a small competitive edge over the rest of the world. The VGF alone can not make the difference. A difference can only be made thanks to the close collaboration with the various Convention Bureaus in the Netherlands, the representatives of the different conference venues and the relationship we have with the Dutch Professional Congress Organizers.

Kraków Convention Bureau Kraków Convention Bureau has been operating since 2004 — exactly 20 years. That’s the same amount of time Poland has been in the European Union 🇵🇱🇪🇺. 🏨 In 2004, there were 83 hotels in Kraków. Today, there are 198, including 21 five-star properties ✨. 🏟️Ten years ago, Kraków saw the opening of three major conference venues: TAURON Arena Kraków: The largest sports and entertainment hall in Poland, with a capacity of 22,000. International Congress Centre Expo Kraków: Accommodating 5,000 participants 🌐. ICE Kraków Congress Centre: An architectural icon of the city 🏛️. 🌐 Kraków hosts many international corporations’ offices. After Brexit, several companies relocated their European divisions here. It’s an excellent place for collaboration with specialists in fields like IT, life sciences, telecommunications, and finance. Additionally, it ensures a full audience at industry events. 🚋 For international event participants, Kraków provides free public transportation without the need to purchase tickets. All major venues are located around the Main Square, making trams the fastest form of transport. Public transportation also reduces the events’ carbon footprint, contributing to sustainable development 🌿. 🌎 Two years ago, Kraków became the global capital of the meetings industry when we hosted the 61st ICCA Congress, attracting 900 delegates from 80 countries 🤝. 🌆 In Kraków we also hosted and co-organized other industry events such as The European Cities Marketing Summer School and the annual Meetings Professionals International meeting (MPI). 📈 In 2022, Kraków was the first Polish city to join the GD Index—an initiative that benchmarks cities based on their sustainable development performance. ✈️ The average flight duration from European capitals to Kraków is 2 hours and 16 minutes. From Berlin, it’s just 1 hour and 15 minutes. #KrakowTheHostCity #KrakowConventionBureau #KnowHowCityBusiness ▶️ https://buff.ly/3wxICM3

Hamburg Convention Bureau Exciting and diverse locations, an impressive range of hotels, good accessibility and one of the largest and most modern congress centres in Europe – these are the first attributes that describe Hamburg as a congress metropolis. Today we would like to take you with us and introduce our city from a MICE point of view. The city is the star. And the city has it all! Around 1.8 million inhabitants within the city limits and 5.2 million people living in the metropolitan region. Hamburg is a port and Hanseatic city – with a great tradition, because Hamburg was the first container port in Germany. Nevertheless, it is an extremely green metropolis: with over 200 parks and 4,900 hectares of public green spaces, 72 % of the city area in Hamburg is green. This can be seen and felt in every corner of the city. More than 2,500 bridges cross the numerous canals and waterways that criss-cross the city. If we look at the MICE location, Hamburg has around 362 hotels with over 66,000 beds and almost 35,000 rooms – across all star categories. As you can see, Hamburg is a city worth visiting. Especially if you are planning your own MICE event. Some examples of conventions that have been visible worldwide were the Lions Clubs International Convention in the summer of 2013 with around 23,000 guests from all over the world and the Rotary International Convention 2019, which attracted more than 26,000 guests from 170 countries to Hamburg. Despite all the world congresses we have hosted, Hamburg is still a sleeping beauty. A “hidden gem” within the international meetings industry. But believe us: Hamburg will surprise you – we are sure. Because this is where profession meets professionalism. Passionate hosts, Hanseatic teamwork and an ideal MICE network make our city stand out. #thatswhyhamburg https://buff.ly/45PgEc9
