Philadelphia is not only the birthplace of America, but also of American medicine. Home to the nation’s first hospital, medical school, children’s hospital, college of pharmacy and medical library, Philadelphia is steeped in science history. PHL Life Sciences is the first and only division in the country focused on life sciences meetings.

Philadelphia continues to make history as a city of education and innovation. We have hosted at least 32 of HCEA’s “Top 50” Medical Meetings in the U.S., often breaking attendance records. Recognized by the Brookings Institute as a top “Knowledge Capital” in the U.S. and Europe, Philadelphia has: • 7 medical schools• 22 nursing schools• 2 dental schools• 2 colleges of pharmacy• A veterinary school• A school of optometry• A podiatry school• Allied health schools• Close to 100 hospitals • More than 100 colleges and

The Philadelphia Convention and Visitors Bureau has three Business Development Divisions includingPHL Life Sciences, PHL Diversity and PHL Sports. The divisions work seamlessly with the PHLCVB

Sales and Services team to provide access to local industry experts, speakers, venues and regional attractions. Each has an advisory board that can connect your group to local diverse businesses and networks that can help increase visibility, strengthen your programming and boost attendance. Each of the Divisions can assist with:

• Providing connections to the region’s large community of experts and professionals, many of whom can also serve as speakers and panelists

• Making introductions to potential partners and sponsor prospects who can enhance your meeting experience• Disseminating your breaking news within the country’s fourth-largest media market• Helping attendees feel welcome by providing display banners on major streets,

customized websites and special promotions• Acting as a hotel liaison and aiding in venue selection• Providing advice on event marketing and consulting

With a thriving minority business community, one of the country’s oldest and largest “Gayborhoods” and vibrant African American, Latino, Native American and Asian communities, Philadelphia is the perfect place to host a diverse meeting or conference.

Thirty years ago, the PHLCVB became first CVB in the country to establish a division to promote Philadelphia as an inclusive destination for diverse events, conventions and visitors. PHL Diversity leads the charge in hospitality inclusion efforts and connects meeting and convention planners with the region’s diverse community to ensure successful events.

PHL Diversity has assisted many national organizations in booking events in Philadelphia, including:• Asian American Journalists

Association• Out & Equal Workplace Advocates• Prospanica - The Association of

Hispanic Professionals• The National Black MBA

Much of the growth taking place in the city surrounds the Pennsylvania Convention Center itself. Taking up residence in the former Gallery at Market East is Fashion District Philadelphia, a mix of retail, dining and entertainment scheduled to open in 2018. Spanning three blocks, the shopping center will include national retailers as well as a dine-in movie theater with reclining seats. Adding to the Market Street redevelopment is East Market, a distinctive, mixed-use space with retailers and restaurants. By Independence Mall, the historic Bourse, which served as an exchange building from 1891 to 1960, will turn into The Bourse Marketplace, a trendy food court with ethnic fare prepared by local chefs, scheduled to open in summer 2018.

An impressive new addition to the historic district is the Museum of the American Revolution, which has become one of Philadelphia’s most sought-after event venues. Opened in 2017, the impressive museum tells the remarkable story of America’s founding with original artifacts in immersive settings. Located two blocks from the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall, the 118,000-square-foot museum offers six event spaces with additional outdoor space. The Rotunda handles up to 350 guests for a reception, and the theater is ideal for presentations and speeches and seats 171.

APROGRESSIVE CITY FILLED WITH HISTORY AND INNOVATION, PHILADELPHIA is constantly evolving with new development and spirited enhancements. The Pennsylvania Convention Center—with more than 1 million square feet of saleable space and the largest ballroom on the East Coast (55,408 square feet)—offers flexible space that combines historic preservation and architectural innovation. The facility is centrally located with direct access to Philadelphia’s public bus system, subways, regional rail and taxis, so getting around is easy.

PHILADELPHIA

Philadelphia’s skyline will be transformed with the completion of the Comcast Technology Center in 2018, slated to be the tallest building in Pennsylvania. The vertical innovation hub will not only house Comcast but also a Four Seasons hotel on its top floors. Overall, new hotel construction in Philadelphia through early 2019 will lead to a 20 percent increase in room inventory. (For a list of new hotels, turn to page 22).

The Viaduct Rail Park, an abandoned rail yard turned public space, is set to open in spring 2018. Infused with history, horticulture and visual and performing arts, the elevated park will be just a few blocks from the Pennsylvania Convention Center. Also undergoing a major facelift is Philadelphia’s iconic LOVE Park, which will receive added green space, a new fountain and a refreshed Fairmount Park Visitor Center. Both projects will offer unique outdoor experiences for attendees just steps from the Pennsylvania Convention Center.

In Philadelphia, centuries of living history are juxtaposed with modern advancement that reflects the city’s character and energy. Experience the vitality and momentum of America’s birthplace. Book your next meeting or convention in Philadelphia and visit MeetPHL.com or call 855-MEET-PHL.

Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts (PAFA): The first museum and fine arts school in America, PAFA boasts a renowned collection of 19th- and 20th-century American artwork, including pieces by Winslow Homer, Cecilia Beaux and Thomas Eakins, as well as contemporary artists like Philip Pearlstein and Jennifer Bartlett. Designed by Frank Furness, the 1876 Victorian Gothic landmark building is a work of art itself—and is located just across Broad Street from the Pennsylvania Convention Center. Look for the giant paintbrush out front. pafa.org

Reading Terminal Market: Adjacent to the Pennsylvania Convention Center, the Reading Terminal Market offers a taste of Philadelphia history. As the oldest continuously operating farmers market in the country, Reading Terminal is a maze of more than 80 merchants and ethnically diverse eateries, including Middle Eastern, Pennsylvania Dutch, Greek, Asian and more. Local specialties at the Market include roast pork sandwiches at DiNic’s, scrapple at the Down Home Diner and cannolis from Termini Brothers Bakery. For regional gifts for those back home, stop at the Pennsylvania General Store. readingterminalmarket.org

Independence National Historical Park: For history buffs, no visit is complete without exploring Philadelphia’s rich colonial history.

Outdoor Pursuits: Run, bike, hike or walk the many trails that wind throughout the more than 10,000 acres of Fairmount Park. For fantastic Schuylkill River views, head to Kelly Drive just beyond the Philadelphia Museum of Art, which winds past picturesque Boathouse Row, public art and rowers on the water.
