WE FOCUS ON PEOPLE
Break The Ice Forum is the B2B event for the M.I.C.E. sector. It's a 2nights-1day intimate size forum with a unique group cohesion, creating close relations with all the participants. It's an authentic business opportunity!
01. Family-sized forum
We are convinced that small groups foster an environment for magical moments to occur. 35 to 45 Buyers break the ice with the same amount of Suppliers. By staying at the same hotel, individuals have the chance to genuinely connect through one-to-one meetings, team-building activities, networking dinners, and lively parties!
02. Pre-scheduled meetings
As seasoned professionals in the Hospitality and MICE industry, we have gained insight into your requirements and are equipped to meet them. Allow us to handle the details while you unwind. On Friday morning, we have organized one-to-one meetings with the top buyers/suppliers for you. This will be followed by opportunities to build meaningful connections over lunch, activities, dinners, and an after-party, where you'll get to mingle with everyone.
03. Sustainable
"Be the change that you wish to see in the world" said Gandhi! We want to contribute to projects that have a lasting & positive impact on the destinations where the forums occur. Whenever possible we try to propose sustainable activities on Friday afternoon!
The activity is always kept secret till the very last moment!
A Short & Effective Stay
FORUM SCHEDULE
We offer you a commitment. With Break the Ice, it only takes 2 nights & 1 day to create strong bonds and new lasting business relationships. Plus good food (= good mood) and good drinks (= lots of fun).
You will be back home Saturday afternoon, tired (maybe) but surely happy and motivated to start a new week at work.

Bratislava March 2024
Break The Ice Forum takes Bratislava!
A heartfelt gratitude to the Grand Hotel River Park sets the stage for our unforgettable forum in Bratislava. With their exceptional staff and prime location along the Danube River, our stay was nothing short of extraordinary.
Next up, a huge shoutout to Tour4U DMC for their transfer services throughout the event, ensuring smooth transitions for all attendees.
A special thank you goes to Enjoy Slovakia DMC for orchestrating a city-wide treasure hunt. It not only unveiled the rich history and hidden gems of Bratislava but also brought us together for a memorable experience filled with laughter and discovery.
AC Hotel by Marriott Bratislava Old Town was a great place for the Famtrip overnight in Bratislava city centre.
Last but certainly not least, a massive thank you to the Bratislava Tourist Board and Bratislava Convention Bureau for their invaluable assistance in event planning and for curating an unforgettable Friday night dinner and party!
