InteleTravel acquires global events agency MGME

Wednesday, 24 Jan, 2024 0

Homerworker agency group InteleTravel has acquired MGME (McVeigh Global Meetings & Events), a full-service global events agency.

MGME has over 30 years of expertise in event planning, strategy meeting management, incentive travel programs and creative production.

It works with many large corporations and associations.

The new acquisition follows InteleTravel’s purchase of corporate travel alliance Hickory Global Partners.

This the latest step in a strategy to leverage its leisure travel success and resources into the blended travel segment.

The MGME integration will empower Hickory member corporate agencies and travel departments to offer event production, meeting planning, and conference logistical services.

MGME will become a wholly owned unit of InteleTravel while operating as an independent brand just like Hickory.

MGME and its clients will benefit from InteleTravel’s resources and scale, as the three companies join in business development, purchasing power and efficiencies.

Hickory will provide air fulfilment for MGME events through its Hickory Solutions365 launched last year; and the three companies will consolidate some supply partner contracts for hotels, air, car, and even cruise.

MGME books over 100,000 room nights annually.

InteleTravel’s charter and market-leading relationships with cruise lines will help develop MGME event-at-sea offerings.

InteleTravel ended 2023 with nearly $1 billion in sales and a unique network of 100,000 travel advisors.

New resources and opportunities for its independent travel agents include a new educational program to teach them how to generate qualified leads for MGME services.

Additionally, MGME will enhance the attendee experience and logistics of InteleTravel’s calendar of over 40 large-scale events each year.

MGME produces upwards of 1,000 events and conferences annually across more than 70 countries, with a value of travel and hospitality spend of over $500 million each year.

“Getting behind a leader like MGME makes sense, while being able to represent top quality event and exhibition offerings is a strong competitive advantage for both Hickory members and InteleTravel advisors,” said James R. Ferrara, InteleTravel President.
