The FIPP World Media Congress is the flagship annual conference for worldwide media and its counterparts in adjacent advisory and tech sectors. Organised and hosted by Media Makers Meet - Mx3, FIPP Congress gathers top speakers, media decision-makers, tech partners and other service providers from 40+ countries every year.
FIPP has a proud heritage in magazines dating back to 1925, when it was founded in Paris, France. Nearly a hundred years on, FIPP continues to provide its worldwide members in modern, professional media businesses with opportunities to learn, connect, engage, and do business at the intersection of media and technology.
Today, magazine media transcends mere products; it is an idea that embodies the ideals of the communities they serve. These publishers inspire their communities in beautiful, inspirational and delightful ways. Their brands rise above platforms; they create relationships with their communities, whether online, in print, in-person or across multiple platforms.
Congress is the heartbeat of this global media industry. It provides a platform for sharing intelligence, meeting counterparts and developing business. It is a trusted nexus for media and tech decision-makers from markets large and small. Whether you are a professional creator, publisher, advisor or technologist working in the global media industry, Congress is where you want to be.

LOCATION:
Congress takes place at the Pestana Cidadela in the beautiful Portuguese coastal town of Cascais, a short drive away from Lisbon.
Once a tiny fishing village, today, Cascais, with its cobbled streets, offers restaurants and shopping, incredible scenery, and plenty to do outdoors.
It is one of Portugal's most sought-after destinations. Cascais is compact, meaning Congress attendees never get lost, and there is a good chance you will bump into one another while out and about, allowing for more informal networking and deeper conversations.

Our travel partner, Savile Row Travel, can help you with hotel and flight bookings and, should you want to explore beyond Congress, various experiences you would like to add to your stay in Portugal. Contact them at mx3@savilerowtravel.co.uk.
