Creating the future of MICE events

"XSLI is a must attend event if you have the opportunity to go and are looking for partners and suppliers in multiple destinations. Unlike larger, similar style events it was incredibly personalized, thoughtful and unique. I walked away remembering every single experience and meeting."
Jennifer Dolnik
Techne Events
"XSLI really got it right in passionately and expertly curating this smaller high touch event that brought buyers and suppliers together in a beautiful setting. So much thought, care and intricate planning went into creating an extremely memorable event with great content. Highly recommended."
Peter White
VIP Meetings and Incentives
"XSLI redefined what MICE experiences can be. Authentic, dynamic, and deeply inspiring—this is the future of incentive events."
Shayna McCord-Dupuis
Essential Meetings + Incentives
"XSLI is next-level – mixing business with destination experiences in the coolest spots. It’s not just networking; it’s making real connections while exploring awesome places. Definitely a game-changer for road shows!."
Ioana Anghel
Marriott Resort Palm Jumeirah
"This was a truly world-class event; it was impactful, memorable, impeccably planned and gave all the savoury-sweet flavours of both Dubai and Abu Dhabi. I walked away with so many tools in the form of experiences and connections to paint a compelling picture for our clients and partners."
Samuel Dunlop
Wren International
"This was an incredibly innovative event that allowed me, as a hosted buyer, to experience and learn about the city I was in while having fun but also meaningful connections with the suppliers. Impeccably thought out and organized, and I left with many new friends and contacts in the space. My heartfelt thanks for including me, I would recommend it to anyone."
Liz Cook
L&K Corporate Events
"I found the format of the one on one meetings with the suppliers very unique, and loved the opportunity to be immersed in their cultures, before meeting them, allowing me a better understanding of what they have to offer. I have attending a few hosted-buyer programs in the past, and really enjoyed the format and quality of my meetings that I found productive. It was a very good use of my time, thank you!."
Francois Fournier
DTN
"A huge thank you to XSLI for the flawless execution and for raising the bar on what’s possible when you blend business with culture and experience. It was innovative, memorable and one of a kind."
