These three words are driven into the mindset of all busi- ness leaders when determining where to set up new of- fices. For many of us in the meet- ings industry, we already know to take advantage of locating our offices in the most central place possible - Europe! When determining where and how to organise your expansion, Europe not only matters - it is crucial to interna- tional growth and perfect to reach business opportunities both to the east and west. But it isn’t only about location. When strategy is aimed at enlarging the target market, we learn that complexities grow as we cross geographical boundaries. Working in Europe helps us tackle this complexity - we already deal with different languages and customs within a very small geographi- cal distance. To be successful, we learn that the key to organising is to balance the benefits of local autonomy and global structure and procedures. Customise and adapt communication and services to local clientele. Orient the international headquarters to drive the organisational culture, strategy, management processes and to share the latest ideas between office locations. AIM Group International, one of the world's leaders in the organisation of congresses, meetings and events, now operates with 400 team members in Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, France, Hungary, Italy, Lithuania, Portugal, Spain.
