The Territory's business events offerings will be on show this week at the turbocharged Meet Darwin program.

Delivered in partnership between the Northern Territory Convention Bureau and the Darwin Convention Centre, the four day familiarisation is the largest ever staged with 20 business event planners to engage with 45 NT industry partners.

The event planners attending Meet Darwin represent over 8,800 potential national and international delegates across health, education, environment, and tourism industries.

The program will ensure these business event planners are aware Darwin is a competitive, distinctive and meaningful destination to stage business events.

The Meet Darwin event is supported by the Territory Government’s $7 million TURBO2 investment over two years to attract more national and international business events to the NT through the NT Business Events Support Fund.

The program is also part of the the NT Government's new Long-term Business Events Strategy to 2030, which identified the need to increase the number of familiarisation trips to encourage business event planners to experience the NT for themselves.
