For meeting pros booking programs outside the United States, MeetingsNet’s new global webinar series is a must. Our local experts reveal what it’s really like to do business in another country. Next up: Beijing, the vast ancient capital of China, as rich in historic sites as it is in modern venues. Beijing’s 3,000-year history is marked by a rapid growth in the past 20 years that has made it the nation's political, economic, trade, educational, and cultural center—and a must-book for meetings and incentive travel.

- Geography, population, and politics
- Safety and security, including health issues and insurance
- Passport and visa requirements
- Choosing local partners
- Airlift and local transport options
