A look back on

Marrakech | 16-20 March 2025
The biggest event in the M&I calendar
We enjoyed the first M&I Fest Global Marrakech so much, we came back for more.
Offering our signature one-to-one meetings and destination discovery, alongside pavilions and an educational programme, there was something for everyone at this year's Forum.

The Programme

Building connections and opening minds
M&I Fest Global Marrakech returned for the second year, offering a jam-packed programme.
With all the highlights of an M&I Forum, buyers and suppliers had the opportunity to build connections with one-to-one meetings with a carefully curated list of delegates.
Off the meeting floor, those attending had the chance to visit our pavilions, explore the tech shaping the industry at the M&I Tech Zone, featuring Holoconnects and Grip, and hear from mindreader and TV star, Thorsten Havener, who led an insightful and eye-opening session on 'How to read people'.

Cementing those relationships...
Outside of the meeting room, there were plenty of opportunities to explore this top MICE destination and see its' magic for ourselves.
With Movenpick Hotel Mansour Eddahbi Marrakech as a base, delegates could explore this beautiful hotel and its amenities during the event.
The evenings offered an opportunity to sample the wonderful Moroccan hospitality, with evenings hosted by Beldi, Cafe Arabe, Le Maison Arabe, Akira Back and Royal Mansour. The final night's extravaganza was organised by Shems Travel & Events and hosted by Agafay Valley.
Destination discovery also gave delegates the chance to experience the local area and activities frequented here, with plenty of activities to participate in - such as exploring the souks, a cookery class, a quad biking experience and the chance to try their hand at traditional Moroccan arts and crafts.

As it was my first M&I event, I was truly impressed by the energy, organisation, and the quality of meetings – it was such a valuable opportunity to connect with industry peers and explore new business opportunities.
