    • Ninad SharmaIDEX – Indian Network for Development Exchange

      WETM has been one of the most successful events for us to visit in order to meet quality partners in the work experience travel field. Despite the fact that India is a relatively new destination for such programs, we have gained tremendous benefit from attending the event continuously for many years, and we intend to participate regularly in future events also.

    • Alfredo FonsecaIntercultura de Centroamérica AFP, S.A. (Costa Rica)

      Busy and vibrant trading floor. We made contact with new potential partners from across the globe. Guest speakers also a plus. Definately worth the trip!

    • Judith LierKulturist

      Kulturist attends WETM-IAC every year and it is one of our year’s many highlights. It’s always important for us to meet our partners personally, to exchange ideas and experiences and of course to learn from the seminars. The IAPA-conference is definitely something we recommend to other au-pair-agencies!

    • Joanna BurnetVisitOz

      I am glad you decided to have booths this year - it makes such a difference to people like us.  Rushing from table to table is more than exhausting, and having a booth and to be able to set ourselves up as we wish is a great innovation.

    • Paola PalombinoDirector at TERMOLI AU PAIR

      Attending to IAPA Conference is a very important thing to me. There are many colleagues who contact me from all over the world who ask to meet me in person in Budapest. Thank you again for this opportunity.

    • Alex BleachSouth African Student Travel Services

      Attending a conference such as WETM-IAC is invaluable for our Organisation, not only in what we take away from the diverse seminar programme and the amazing networking opportunities with exchange of new relevant ideas, but the highly successful and focused contacts made during the business appointments. This all leads to a must attend event for anyone in the youth, student work travel and volunteering arena.
