The man who buys the room and builds it.
On the IMEX floor, everyone has a brochure.
Almost no one has sat on both sides of the table.
Isaac Kagara has.
He is CEO of Universal Events Ltd. He takes international meetings into Africa and makes them land on time, in the right rooms, with the right people. He is also founder of AOTA and creator of IBMA, a conference he built and still owns. That second life is the point. He does not only organise events. He owns one.
Most buyers want the same thing: a destination that still feels new, and a partner who can open a government door in the morning and run a venue in the afternoon. Isaac has already made those calls — for more than 200 events, and for his own.
Bring the brief.
Tell him the year, the audience, and the problem a spreadsheet cannot solve.
He will tell you whether Africa is the right room.
And how to walk in with the doors already unlocked.
