After the successful battle at the beginning of Act I, Duncan rewards Macbeth for being a war hero by giving him the title Thane of Cawdor. In the same scene (Act I Scene 4) he rewards Malcolm for no particular reason with the title Prince of Cumberland, and then says, "From hence to Inverness, and bind us further to you." Inverness is the city where Macbeth lives, and Duncan is in effect saying, "Hey guys, the party's at the Macbeths'!" This is significant because it will put him in range of Lady Macbeth, who will be the death of him.
