Since its launch in 1988 ITCM has been reporting on the latest developments in the MICE market from around the world. Our greatest strength is our corporate readership: 6,150 named individuals, who plan and organise conferences and events for the UK’s biggest companies. They control annual budgets worth more than £3.2 billion and book more than 140,000 events every year. In addition we distribute a further 1,215
copies to the top agencies and MICE professionals bringing our circulation to 7,365 (ABC Audited).
Each copy is read by 4.3 people giving ITCM a very impressive readership of over 31,670.


ITCM readers are always looking for the best value for money so we have regular news sections on hotels, conference centres and unusual venues. These are complemented by our comprehensive destination features and city reports, giving them a good feel for all the facilities available in any given area. This has helped us to build very good working relationships with many tourist boards and convention bureaux and to get involved in hosting buyers to exhibitions and organising fam trips. 

If you are serious about increasing your conference business contact us. ITCM can make it happen

"It is a very informative magazine with up to the minute features. It gives a good view of the domestic market in the UK but more importantly for me, the international market. Also having worked with the ITCM over a number of years, what is good is that they are familiar with my requirements for my client base predominantly from the food and drinks industry."
Jim Collins – Managing Director – CMC Marketing
