In our April issue we revealed some of the meeting destinations planners singled out in the 2014 Watkins Report, which asked more than 800 planners to rate cities on key factors. Here are 12 destinations that bear watching as they strategically maneuver to attain/retain the attributes of the overall experience that planners find the most appealing:
- Charlotte
- Chicago
- Cincinnati
- Cleveland
- Columbus
- Nashville
- New Orleans
- New York
- Pittsburgh
- San Francisco
- Vancouver
- Washington, DC
