JMIC - The Joint Meetings Industry Council

JMIC was established in 1978 to provide a communications link amongst international associations engaged in the Meetings Industry and a means of collectively reviewing industry conditions and strategies and has met for this purpose twice annually since then.

In 2003, JMIC commissioned a review of its role and the potential for developing a more aggressive industry advocacy program to support its members in their efforts to raise overall industry awareness and appreciation. As a result, it developed a new program – the Profile and Power Program – that was designed to both encourage and recognize initiatives to enhance the overall image of the industry and the economic and professional impacts it delivers.
