The international ranking 2019 ICCA Statistics Report covers over 110 countries around the world, including Poland. From among Polish cities, Warsaw was ranked first – according to the ICCA data, 71 meetings were organised in the capital, which gives the city the 20th place in Europe and 34th in the international ranking.
Data is collected from the ICCA members whose task is to collect and send information about meetings held in their city, region, country. The analysed meetings must meet three conditions: take place cyclically, gather at least 50 participants and migrate between at least three countries. The ICCA report is one of the key publications summarising the number of meetings of associations in a given country and in individual cities.
