Just go on

This week-end I read a very nice article in the "24 heures".

The newspaper mentions that Montreux might welcome the 13th Francophonie summit in October 2010.  This event gathers every 2 years the presidents of 56 countries. It would represents 10'000 room nights in the region which would be excellent for the local economy. Moreover it would be ideal in term of image due to the number of journalists that follows the event. 
 
After that the Madagascar bid was not accepted, it seems that Montreux is the only destination left still in the run. Montreux was preferred compared to Zürich and Geneva as it is a smaller city which is more friendly.
The main issue will be for sure the security but I guess that this is easier to manage in a small city like Montreux rather than in a big capital.

If Montreux will really organize the 13th Francophonie Summit, it will be the biggest event the region ever welcomed 

Definitive answer in december 2009

Montreux will host next year the new professional fair ZAGG which is dedicated to the hotel and restaurant business. A new competitor of Gastronomia (that takes place every september in Lausanne) but who lost visitors last year.
This new fair will be held from 06 to 09 June 2010 at the Montreux Congress centre (2m2c) and will occupy an area of 7400 square meters divided into 4 rooms.

This fair is expected to welcome between 120 and 150 exhibitors and hopes to attract 12,000 visitors, almost as much as Gastronomia in 2008. Remains to be seen whether there is enough room for 2 similar shows in the french part of Switzerland.
