Visit Belfast’s efforts to promote the city as a leading destination for conferences and business events have been richly rewarded after it scooped a top award at the Meetings & Incentive Travel (MIMA) Awards 2013 in London. Organised by the influential Meetings & Incentive Travel magazine, Visit Belfast emerged the winner of the Marketing Team of the Year award from a shortlist that included specialist teams from London’s ExCel exhibition and conference centre, the internationally-renowned Harrogate International Centre in Yorkshire and the Montreal Convention Centre.
