That's a Wrap on a Sense-ational, Sellout Experience

The 2025 FICP Education Forum took place June 23–25 at the beautiful Montage Palmetto Bluff in Bluffton, South Carolina.

We were thrilled to have 84 meetings professionals from 56 companies and an incredible 133 hospitality partners here with us at the 2025 FICP Education Forum, officially surpassing our standout event back in 2017!

Attendees awakened their senses as they immersed themselves in insightful education sessions, engaged in meaningful conversations and took in the breathtaking Lowcountry surroundings. With the depth of education sessions similar to the marquee Annual Conference, combined with inspiring networking events, the 2025 FICP Education Forum delivered a powerful experience in a more intimate, relaxed environment.
