American Express Meetings & Events in November will launch a meetings portal developed by Cvent

as part of an expanded relationship between the two companies, they announced. The portal will include such features as a centralized meetings calendar and Cvent's meeting-request tool. Under the terms of the expanded agreement, American Express Meetings & Events clients also gain access to Cvent event-specific mobile applications, and six months of free access to Cvent's Meeting Cost Estimator, a tool set to debut in November that generates location-specific cost estimates for proposed future meetings.
