What they are saying about Meetings Focus Live!




Just wanted to let you know that because of Meetings Focus live that I attended last June in Atlantic City, I just booked a group to go to Calgary, Alberta. It was because of my one-on-one meeting with Kyla from Travel Alberta that made me aware of Calgary and led me to book my group.
