The Madrid Convention Bureau is a non-profit organisation created by the City Council in collaboration with a group of public and private companies from the sector, with a view to promoting Madrid as a city capable of hosting national and international meetings and aiming to enable these events from a technical and institutional viewpoint. Now, the Bureau has been a department of Madrid Destino and currently groups some 200 members.
Madrid Convention Bureau places itself at the disposal of event, meeting or incentive trip planners to ensure that any sort of event staged in the city will be carried out smoothly and to promote the Spanish capital as a convention city.
The MCB provides assistance by:
Presenting candidacies with technical documentation adapted to every need, undertaking the necessary expenses to attract organisers.
Organising inspection visits to Madrid to show the organisers, in detail, what the city has to offer (covering the expenses derived from these trips).
Providing information on the city.
Facilitating contacts with the most suitable service providers for each case.
Providing publicity for the event (using material designed specifically for that purpose: posters, leaflets, videos, electronic screens).
Officially welcoming congress attendees, as well as providing participants with tourist documentation on Madrid.
