Here’s what out attendees had to say about MILT 2026

Here's what our attendees had to say about last year's edition

Almost 10 years together in this partnership and we get a great ROI for every time we join !

The quality of meetings is outstanding, with direct access to decision-makers who can drive real business opportunities. Across the first day of Congress, we had around 30 highly qualified meetings and are returning home with promising leads and potential partnerships. What truly sets MILT Congress apart is its intimate format. It gives us the time to genuinely understand our clients’ needs, build meaningful relationships, and create connections that go far beyond a typical trade show. It’s why we’ve proudly partnered with the event for nearly a decade.”

I look forward to welcoming everyone to discover the incredible city of Moscow.”
