Planning and staging meetings outside the United States is fraught with legal and financial pitfalls. Professional meeting and convention organizers must understand the complexities and issues in three key areas when planning international meetings. This session, for novice and intermediate level planners, will address all three areas.

Learning Objectives:

  • Understand how negotiating internationally is different from negotiating in the United States.
  • Identify critical contract terms to include in international contracts.
  • Implement strategies for handling risks with currency, deposits, and methods of payment in global contracts as well as preferred methods for dispute resolution in international contracts.
