A sovereign state, Monaco is located on the french riviera along the mediterranean only a 25 minute drive from the main airport in nearby Nice.
The venue, the premium meeting location in the south of France and Monaco, is an exceptional location for this year's event, offering 3 auditoria, 22 breakout rooms and 35,000m2 of exhibition surface.
Located in the south western part of Europe on the Mediterranean sea and with significant historical heritage, a visit to the principality of Monaco is always an experience.
