New Partnership Will Help Meeting Planners Spend Smarter

Global DMC Partners, the only truly global network of Destination Management Companies (DMCs), and BizzSmarts, the cloud-based online platform that enables users to collect, visualize, and analyze their MICE spend, announce a new strategic partnership to offer clients a robust budget management solution. BizzSmarts’ single access point ensures that meeting planners, procurement professionals, finance departments and other stakeholders, are on the same page. The tool increases transparency and enables companies to improve their budget management, as well as ensure corporate compliance. 

“The cloud-based platform is accessible from anywhere, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The information is instantly updated, meaning users always have real-time information at their fingertips. Customers love BizzSmarts’ intuitive design. No bulky user manuals or lengthy training needed”, explains co-founder, Anita M. Beaubien, Esq. 

BizzSmarts can help everyone in the MICE industry, from small meeting planners to purchasing departments at large global corporations, better understand where their event dollars are going in order to make the most of their MICE spend. 

According to BizzSmarts co-founder, Morgan Hensley, “This strategic alliance with Global DMC Partners will help us reach a greater number of event professionals to offer them a cutting edge solution that sheds light on their different cost centers. We know that meeting planners are being asked to make more with less, and we want to give them the tools to succeed”. 

The meeting spend management tool complements the varied and extensive global services already offered by Global DMC Partners. 

“We are very happy about this new partnership that is in line with our strategy to establish privileged relationships with companies that enable Global DMC Partners to offer better, smarter and more tailored solutions to our DMC Partners and customers around the globe. We have continually helped our clients track and centralize their DMC spend, and with strategic meetings management being so critical these days we are now so pleased to offer our clients a solution to track and centralize their entire program’s spend across many functional areas.”, says Catherine Chaulet, President of Global DMC Partners.
