How we are organized

The Connecticut Convention & Sports Bureau (CTMEETINGS) is a 501(c)(6), quasi-public/private organization funded by the Connecticut State Department of Economic & Community Development (DECD) via the Connecticut Office of Tourism and by dues from member partners representing related hospitality industries and professions.

Governed by a Board of Directors that is elected by its general membership, CTMEETINGS works with partners across the state to bring meetings, conventions and sports events to venues across Connecticut, resulting in increased economic impact and tax revenue for the State.

Vision Statement:

Elevate Connecticut as the premier destination for versatile, unique, and successful conventions, meetings, and sports events.

Mission:

Attract conventions, meetings, and sports events to Connecticut, generating economic growth for the State and its regions through public and private sponsorships.
