Next Generation Program
MPI Next Generation Program
MPI (Meeting Professionals International) is the leading professional association for the meeting and event industry. In the Netherlands, MPI sees the need to involve the future professionals of our own industry in an early stage of their career. We want to get in contact with the universities and stay on top of what is thought. We also want to get in touch with the students of today, who are the industry leaders of tomorrow. In order to offer the students the opportunity to get in contact with MPI and the meeting industry as a whole, we developed a scholarship program, called The Next Generation.
In cooperation with our project sponsor World Forum The Hague, MPI developed a student program that offers students the possibility to organize a real event for MPI and also attend other industry events. The World Forum sponsors the membership fees for a small group of students and allows them to set their first steps in the industry. The World Forum scholarship program was born.
Last April a group of 6 students of the Stenden University of Applied Science, Leeuwarden, won the pitch to organize our first Next Generation event. On June 24th 2010 the event will take place at the World Forum The Hague. The students started an agency called Com[pass] Production which is the company that will organize this MPI event. As part of their studies the students have to follow all steps in real life as well as plan and organize the entire event in a period of 10 weeks. They are responsible from A to Z, meaning that they set the program of the day, contact the speaker(s), conduct the marketing, budgeting, etc.
We see that Com[pass] Production is greatly engaged in this project and is already proud to feature the well know trend watcher Adjiedj Bakas for the conference. Furthermore, a hologram presentation, interactive workshops and networking activities are just a few highlights of this event.
I feel confident that Com[pass] Production will do a terrific job and make a great success of the Next Generation event. The event is themed Meet YOUR future. The participants will get a sneak preview on the future meeting and event industry.
I look forward to meeting you on June 24th.

About Us
The Team
Our team was founded in April 2010 by 6 motivated students of the Stenden University Leeuwarden, The Netherlands who are specializing in Event Management.
According to our company name our mission is:
The event is our destination- we take the lead and guide the creative process to a successful ending.
We have chosen the symbol of the compass because it reflects the attributes of a clear focus and direction, stability, trust and quality as well as the choice for flexibility.
Currently, we encounter our first project called the ‘Next Generation ’which is part of the MPI educational program.
We have a special relation to this event since we reflect the next generation who stands for the future.
Next generation will take place on the 24th of June in the World Forum in The Hague.
We want to provide insights into the ‘Next Generation’ Event. Hereby, you will be kept up to date of the latest development. Join the journey!
Next Generation ‘Meet YOUR future!’
