ECM TIC Expert Meeting is the annual event of European Cities Marketing, which every time takes place in a different European city and brings together participants from European TICs. The main objective is to exchange experience of TICs in different cities. In addition to the annual meeting, there are also online meetings every two months involving one representative from the cities. Each on-line meeting has its own theme, on which all participants have the opportunity to speak and answer each other’s questions. Themes are offered by the cities themselves, and these are usually new challenges faced by the TICs.
