‘Three Star Dinner’ EMIF offers joint platform for The Hague, Rotterdam and Maastricht

18 march 2011 . 10:48Holland’s renowned conference cities The Hague, Rotterdam and Maastricht presented themselves jointly in Brussels to over forty event planners, intermediaries and corporate parties during a special 'Three Star Dinner’. This culinary networking event, with its open, friendly ambiance, was much appreciated by the Belgian event planners, who called it 'professional and valuable’ and 'effective in promoting your destinations’.  

The cities recognise the power of joining forces, as do partners operating in the cities, who helped make the event possible. 'Promoting The Netherlands as a conference destination and showcasing the potential of all the cities together has a stronger impact than thinking only in terms of your own city. In addition, it’s a unique collaboration, as yet unseen in this manner’, according to the organisers.

The result was a special EMIF dinner in Restaurant Tasso in Brussels, where the three starring cities shone during aperitifs and new network connections were made after dinner. Guests were presented with a goodie bag upon leaving and there was a raffle of three weekend trips, one to each city.
