ABOUT THE MEETING VENUE
The Metro Toronto Convention Centre (MTCC) is a world-class facility located in downtown Toronto making it easily accessible from the city center and major transportation hubs. The IMS Annual Meeting will occupy the entire South Building creating an insulated and intimate environment for education and networking.
