Meet Devon has now re-launched (June 2021) with a fresh concept for business tourism across the whole county of Devon in South West England. Working in joint partnership with long term business associate Nicky Harding, formerly of Conference English Riviera in Torquay, and between us we have 40 years industry experience. Together we are a venue sourcing agency with the key aim to drive business tourism in and around Devon. Being the 3rd largest county in England, there are many choices of venue and team build facilities to suit all enquiries. From large convention facilities in coastal towns to discreet country house hotels in rolling Devon countryside, we can match your enquiry to suit. We are promoting the region as a destination for all business events, including association, corporate meetings, incentive and golfing groups, celebratory events and film /TV location scouts. With such stunning coastline circumnavigating on both the North and the South, and masses of open countryside with fresh air for fresh thinking. An excellent communication infrastructure and easily accessible. The perfect destination for all.
