As an emerging knowledge hub, the Washington, DC region helps connect planners with thought leaders to grow their delegate base, sponsorship dollars and exhibitor footprints, and gain a competitive advantage for their organizations. DC’s assets have helped establish the city as a leader in key industries such as tech, biotech/pharma, education and medical.


With the sum of major development projects reaching $11.5 billion, there is always something new and notable in the nation’s capital. Hosting a meeting or convention in Washington, DC allows the opportunity not only to wow guests with iconic monuments, memorials and museums, but also with unique venues, vibrant neighbor- hoods and rewarding experiences.


Washington, DC’s Michelin-starred restaurant scene will fuel gatherings, and the local, national and internation- al cultures of the city will inspire. The city’s volume of professional sports will continue to thrive following this year’s Stanley Cup win for the Washington Capitals; a legendary MLB All-Star Week; the opening of Audi Field, home to DC’s Major League Soccer team, DC United, and more.
