WTCA Marks 22nd Successful Year at MIPIM

WTCA marked its 22nd year at the MIPIM International Property Fair in Cannes, France, March 11-14, 2014. Celebrating its 25th anniversary, MIPIM 2014 drew 20,500 delegates from 93 countries, including 4,500 investors, who gathered in Cannes for a frenetic four days of business meetings and high-level industry talks.

WTCA’s premiere stand location, just beyond the main entrance to the show, afforded our organization maximum exposure. The WTCA team secured more than 40 meetings with potential licensees and affinity partners during the 4-day event.
