BCD combines three units for MICE market
A division dedicated to global meetings, incentives and events has been set up by travel management company BCD Travel.
BCD Meetings & Incentives is to be run hy Scott Graf, previously president of WorldTravel Meetings & Incentives before it joined WorldTravel BTI and several other travel-related companies under the BCD Holdings umbrella.
The new company has been formed through the combination of three units: WorldTravel Meetings & Incentives, TQ3 Events and UK and European event management and incentive business Talking Point.
The division will have 500 staff and a presence in more than 20 countries, including wholly-owned in 13.
Graf said: “As a distinct operating unit of BCD Travel, we enjoy the strength and leverage of a $12 billion company. But as a separate business, we can maintain the intimate, customer-focused culture that made each of our legacy organisations a success.”
