Recognized for the 13th consecutive year among the largest and most innovative meeting and incentive travel companies in North America
NEW YORK (September 23, 2024) – Your Event Solutions (formerly ALTOUR Meetings & Incentives) is proud to announce its inclusion in the 2024 CMI 25 list, an exclusive recognition of North America’s largest and most influential full-service meeting and incentive-travel management companies. Curated by MeetingsNet, a leading source of industry news and insights, the CMI 25 list serves as the go-to resource for corporations seeking top-tier event-planning partners.
As a group, the organizations on this year’s list collectively managed nearly 150,000 corporate meetings and over 1,400 incentive-travel programs in 2023 alone, utilizing more than 7 million room nights at premier hotels and resorts worldwide. These numbers underscore the significant impact of the CMI 25 companies in driving business outcomes through exceptional event management.
“Being named to the 2024 CMI 25 list for the 13th straight year is a monumental achievement for us,” said Cindy D’Aoust, SVP Global MICE at Your Event Solutions. “This honor reflects our relentless commitment to innovation, creativity and consistently delivering world-class event experiences that resonate with clients and attendees alike. With the launch of Your Event Solutions in 2024, we’ve revolutionized the event industry, bringing together global expertise from the USA, EMEA, and LATAM to offer groundbreaking solutions.”
In April 2024, Your Event Solutions was formed from the merger of ALTOUR Meetings & Incentives, Travel Leaders Corporate’s Meetings and Incentives divisions, and OnTempo, the event-planning division of Corporate Travel Services in Mexico City. This powerful combination resulted in the successful execution of over 7,675 events across 66 countries in 2023, engaging 226,200 attendees globally and delivering remarkable in-person and virtual experiences.
“Hats off to the CMI 25 companies,” said Sue Hatch, Content Director at MeetingsNet. “They are indispensable partners in delivering events that drive connection, education and business success. Their proven expertise in managing large-scale meetings and incentive programs has earned them this recognition year after year.”
As part of its global expansion, Cindy D’Aoust, SVP, Global MICE, with Roy Benear recently appointed as VP of Global Sales, MICE, lead a global team of world-class event professionals, focused on providing unparalleled support for our clients, helping them navigate the evolving landscape of corporate meetings and incentives.
The 2024 CMI 25 list was compiled based on several key factors, including the volume of meetings and incentive programs managed, total room nights booked, full-time employee counts and the proportion of revenue derived from corporate meetings and incentive services.
