The BMI Agent Workshops offer you the opportunity for 1 on 1 meeting with up to 60 pre-screened agencies from around the globe. Agent workshops are essential for Schools who are looking to enter new markets. They are an extremely time and cost-effective way to make many valuable contacts with relatively little time, effort, or money spent.
Here are the key features of a BMI workshop:
- Our workshops are relaxed but efficient, spread out over two days.
- We keep the number of participating schools below 35, as any more than this would not be conducive to creating meaningful relationships in the space of 2 days.
- We send you a complete list of agents well before the day of the event so that you can select the agencies you would most like to meet.
- We use this list to create a complete 2 day schedule and return it to you 10 days in advance.
- We include networking cocktails and a dinner in the evening so that you can also network in a less formal environment.
- We pre-screen agencies – they have either worked with us before, or if not then we require references from contacts we know and trust.
- We are a small / intimate event – we feel that a workshop should be a small, intimate and relaxed affair and not a huge, impersonal, corporate meeting.
- 25 minutes per meeting (with 5 minutes in between)

Why?BMI has been a name trusted by Educators and Agencies for many years. This is how we can bring the two together to create meaningful, valuable meetings. It is obvious that Face to Face meetings are essential in forging meaningful relations, and this rings true in South America more than in any other continent.
