“MPI is excited to hold EMEC in Granada next year. The city´s rich history, beautiful landscape and accessibility make it a great choice for our event,” said Paul Van Deventer, president and CEO of MPI. “In addition to exploring innovative ideas and rich content for the conference, we are working with our host city partners to offer very attractive hotel room rates to conference attendees.”

Granada has served as a lively and inviting destination for numerous conferences, conventions, and incentive trips thanks to the local environment, professionalism of the spaces and services offered, and warmth of the people. The city´s conference centre is located in the center of the city with more than 4,000 hotel rooms within walking distance.

“We believe this is the perfect time for MPI Spain, the Granada Convention Bureau, and the international MPI community to meet in Granada.
