Endorsements

You can rely on AIM because the standard has been examined by experts who are happy to endorse it.

VisitBritain is pleased to endorse AIM quality assurance scheme as a national standard for business meeting venues.

The quality of meeting venues is an important factor as this key sector develops and grows to compete with destinations from all over the world.

VisitBritain is encouraging all meeting venues in England to become accredited under the AIM scheme, as we believe this is a standard venues should aspire to achieve.

As well as driving best practice in terms of quality of product and service delivery, the accreditation also covers criteria for environmental and corporate responsibility issues.

As an entry standard, we would encourage venues to achieve the AIM entry level but hope they will seek to obtain the Silver and Gold accolades as their business progresses. 

Visit Wales  "It's a positive move for Visit Wales to endorse the AIM scheme.

By including AIM branding within our Star Quality printed material from 2011 and including AIM accreditation as a search criteria when looking for a venue on our new Business Visits and Events website; we will be actively endorsing the AIM scheme as a national standard for Wales and encouraging venues across the country to not only join but also achieve the Silver and Gold Standards"
