THE ENVISAGED MOUNT KILIMANJARO INTERNATIONAL CONVENTION CENTRE (MK-ICC) The innovative idea was incepted several years ago by experts in the meeting industry who are none other than Arusha International Conference Centre. One would easily see the difference between the two based on the two distinctive words used: Convention Centre and Conference Centre. The experts in the meeting industry knows well that the two though in some cases may be used interchangeably but they are not one and the same.

WHY MK-ICC Currently Tanzania has got no purposely built Convention and Exhibition centre that could handle major meetings that are experienced by convention centers like Sandton, South Africa, Capetown COnvention Centre, Orlando Convention Centre, Washington DC Convention Centre, BT Convention Centre-Liverpool etc. If you ask many people about conference facilities in Tanzania, most of them would definitely guide you to Arusha International Conference Centre. Others who are more interested in fashion industry would guide you to Mlimani City, others to Ngurdoto, etc. Recently the Chinese government granted to the Tanzania Government funds for construction of Mwalimu Nyerere International Convention Centre and the Centre was formally inaugurated in March 24,2013. Beside the AICC and the newly inaugurated Convention Centre there are few centres that could be recognised as meeting facilities that at least meet international standards that are advocated by the ICCA (International Congress and Convention Association) and AIPC(International Association of Congress Centres)
