Global European Marketplace 2024 Reviews

Thank you for sharing your feedback about GEM 2024. We are thrilled to hear that so many of you found the event well-organised, giving you the opportunity to meet with established partners and network with new ones. We appreciate the positive comments about our choice of venue and catering and of course, it’s encouraging to hear that our matchmaking process has been so productive and beneficial.

We understand the frustrations around no-shows, unproductive meetings, and occasional mismatches that some of you have pinpointed and we are committed to continual improvement.  We will work on refining the meeting booking system so that the day is filled with relevant and successful appointments and will ensure that we allow for more seating options during breaks.  We have also noted your comments about event timing – particularly regarding GEM in relation to WTM – and we are working on logistics and plans that make GEM25 even better, whilst building on GEM24’s successes.

Thank you once again for your participation and valuable insights. We look forward to welcoming you to GEM 2025.

Gem once again proved to be a must-attend event!
The GEM workshop featured a very good selection of buyers from versatile source markets, creating valuable opportunities for networking and growth. The O2 venue served as a fitting location, and the well-coordinated timings made for a seamless experience. The get-together after the sessions provided a welcoming space to connect and unwind. Overall, it was a highly productive and enjoyable event.

Not good for our business
Unfortunately for us, having individual clients and in the luxury segment, it is not the right event, since there were mostly group tours companies and student companies.

Thank you for giving us this feedback, and doing so pubicly. ETOA is a broad church, and we are constantly looking at ways to increase the Luxury element.
