Funding aims to attract global conferences

A new £2m bid fund has been launched to boost Scotland’s prospects of attracting major international conferences.

Edinburgh is already a popular destination for conferences, including TED Global, which takes place in the city this summer

The fund will be made available by VisitScotland over the next three years.

It aims to help businesses showcase what Scotland has to offer international delegates, from venues and facilities to food and drink, and world-class golf.
