 IMC
2008May 25-28, 2008 Media Center Ostend, Belgium Billed as "the biggest international marina conference in the world" and scheduled for May 25-28, 2008, on the Flemish seacoast where marinas teem with cross channel cruising yachts, the International Marina Conference will be held in the Media Center in Oostend, Belgium. With all its coastal attractions, the invigorating sea air, clean beaches, the freshness of the mussels, monkfish, and other piscine species fished from the North Sea, and a waterfront promenade lined with an array of tantalizing seafood restaurants, Oostend is an ideal setting for a marina/nautical tourism education conference. Previous ICOMIA international marina conferences focused fully on marina operation and management. IMC 2008 provides an added dimension, networking with allied interest groups among international yachtsmen, municipal marinas, and nautical tourism promoters to point up the importance of marinas as boat tourist destinations. That's why a main conference theme is Alliances for Progress. IMC 2008, like its predecessors, will field two days of intensive panel discussion by international experts in marina design, operation and management. A battery of speakers from Australia, Belgium, France, Germany, Holland, Spain, Italy, Japan, the UK and USA is lined up to engage you in lively, interactive discussion of what you want and need to know about how to run a successful marina in today's environment. ATM Chairman Ed Modzelewski will be attending. |
