Emota is top 25 in the US for the 13th year

We are proud to once again be one of the CMI25 – MeetingsNet’s list of the largest Meeting & Incentive Companies in the US.

September, 2024

For the 13th consecutive year, we have been recognized by MeetingsNet as one of the 25 largest full-service meeting and incentive travel management companies focused on the U.S. corporate market.

The annual report from MeetingsNet, a media brand delivering news and analysis on the meetings and conventions industry, is a unique resource for companies looking for experienced business-event planning partners. As a group, the organizations on the 2024 CMI25 list executed nearly 150,000 corporate meetings and more than 1,400 incentive-travel programs in 2023, and in total those events used more than 7 million room nights at hotels and resorts around the world.

The CMI25 report includes statistics on business volume and top customer markets as well as internal company news, giving readers a sense of the focus, strengths, and size of each company.

 

We are honored and incredibly proud to once again be named among the CMI25. This recognition reflects not only the relentless passion and commitment of our amazing teams but also the trust and loyalty of our clients. Their belief in us drives us to push boundaries and create extraordinary experiences. We are truly excited about what lies ahead and can’t wait to embark on another year of delivering groundbreaking, transformative experiences that create purposeful connections for our clients and their customers.

Mark Jackson, Emota Managing Director

The MeetingsNet editors selected the 2024 CMI25 companies based on several factors, including the number of meetings and incentive-travel programs managed in 2023 and the total number of room nights represented by those meetings and incentives. They also considered the number of full-time employees at each company, as well as the percentage of a company’s 2023 revenues that came from organizing corporate meetings and incentives versus association meetings or other sources.

We are thrilled to be named as one of the CMI25 for the 13th year in a row – with our legacy brand Ashfield Event Experiences appearing for 12 consecutive years.

 

Hats off to those firms who made the CMI25; they are essential partners for bringing groups together for training and education, recognition, networking, brand-building, and more. Successful meetings management demands a special combination of creativity, experience and attention to detail, and the CMI25 companies have proven themselves event after event.
