Future Leaders Forum

The Future Leaders Forum programme jointly run by IMEX and MPI (Meeting Professionals International), has been developed to encourage the best and brightest students to enter the meetings and incentive travel industry. Over 3200 students have passed through the programme since its launch in 2003, attending one of 46 Forums worldwide. 80% have said they are more likely to enter the industry as a result.


The Future Leaders Network is aimed at offering former attendees a network of peers from across the world, as well as continued career guidance and opportunities.

"I can honestly say that the Future Leaders Forum was the best experience that I think any student can have."

Sydney Osmun

MPI student member of the Utah Chapter

"The most useful aspect of the Forum was actually meeting the other Future Leaders, as well as the current leaders. We all certainly feel that we not only have advocates, but we have people who are happy to invest in us, and they do."
