Washington state lies in the Pacific Northwest part of America. It is a leading lumber producer, as well as the center of manufacturing, technological, engineering, and other industries. Consistently ranking among the best places for life expectancy and a low unemployment rate, the state is considered one of the wealthiest and economically growing regions. Business meetings held on the territory of the state mainly touch the spheres of ICT and technologies, service sector, R&D, medicine, etc. Washington’s meeting spaces are primarily concentrated in urban locations like Spokane and Seattle, but the opportunities for meeting and event planning go far beyond the limits of these cities. Thus, Tacoma has managed to stand out from ashes, shifting from the industrial past to the technological future, and boasting one of the largest urban parks in the USA. Bellevue, the city, placed across Lake Washington from Seattle, is another favorable event spot, with numerous professional facilities for hosting meetings of various types and sizes. The process of planning a business event or an informal occasion in the area starts with the choice of the location. When this phase is over, entrepreneurs and planners turn to the option of choosing the meeting space. Washington’s meeting destinations include hotel options, venues placed in the business centers, coworkings, unique event facilities, and dedicated conference centers.
