We cannot wait for you to join us for three unforgettable days at the IAPCO EDGE Seminar in the vibrant city of Porto.  

 

Porto is Portugal’s second-largest city. It is famous for its rich history, stunning architecture, and world-renowned port wine. The city’s compact size makes it easy to explore, whether you're wandering through the charming streets or enjoying the picturesque riverside. 

 

The theme for IAPCO EDGE Porto is “Porto, Where Events Empower and Communities Connect. The aim is to highlight the critical role of human inspiration and social investment to create impactful change. 

 

This connects with Porto Convention Bureau’s commitment to social responsibility through the creation of employment opportunities in the meetings and hospitality industry for local people. 

 

To showcase the unique neighborhoods of the city, IAPCO EDGE Porto seminar will be held in two different venues. You will learn from inspiring industry leaders and participate in hands-on group workshops alongside colleagues from around the world. 

 

Porto is easily accessible by plane with direct connections to Francisco Sá Carneiro Airport (OPO). Metro do Porto operates a subway directly from the airport to the hotel which takes 25 mins.   

​

Registrations are open to PCOs, Meeting Planners, Destination Management Companies, Convention Bureaux, Convention Centres, Hotels, and Associations (spaces are limited to 80). 

​

We are thrilled to host EDGE in Porto and look forward to sharing our beautiful city with you, along with our passion for culture, wine, food and most importantly.... PEOPLE! 

 

Looking forward to welcoming you to Porto in January.
