About us

The Vienna Convention Bureau was established in 1969 as a department of the Vienna Tourist Board with the help of the city of Vienna and the Vienna Chamber of Commerce. Additional funds for the Vienna Convention Bureau come from sponsors. The Vienna Convention Bureau has no members.

The Vienna Convention Bureau is a member in the leading umbrella organisations and associations for the national and international meeting industry: ACB, DMAI, ICCA, MPI, PCMA and UIA.

Congresses, corporate meetings and incentives are an important part of Vienna’s tourist industry. Around 12% of all overnight stays in Vienna in 2016 were in this area. The exceptional meeting infrastructure, the excellent service standard of the congress service sector as well as the cultural attractiveness of the city are all factors that contribute to making Vienna a top destination worldwide for international meetings.

The Vienna Convention Bureau has set itself the task of promoting awareness on sustainable actions in the sector and supports initiatives and projects on the topics of Green Meetings, sustainability and corporate social responsibility. You can find more information about this in the chapter Sustainability & Green Meetings.
