CMITE, which recently had a logo refresh along with all the other events in the Questex MICE portfolio, brings fully hosted US and Canada-based meeting planners and incentive buyers together with Caribbean-based suppliers for two and a half days of exclusive networking opportunities and prescheduled one-to-one meetings in private rooms.
The event officially opened Monday evening with an exciting welcome reception sponsored by UNICO 20°87° complete with an authentic mezcal tasting station and custom beer garden, while guests dined on a variety of Mexican favorites and danced to live music and a sizzling deejay.

The day will close out with a trip to Secrets Akumal Riviera Maya where guests will be treated to an enchanted forest themed-evening including fairy tale edibles, live music, and various performance art including a contortionist and jellyfish light show.
Suppliers include cruise lines, tour operators, destination management companies, sought-after destinations, hotels, resorts and spas. Buyers represent key incentive purchasing sectors including corporate incentive buyers and incentive companies, and meeting planners.
