The
Great Hotels Organisation (GHO) is to hold two Asian Meeting & Incentive Forums
in 2009. The Asian M&I Forums, which will bring together worldwide MICE suppliers with planners from across the
Asia Pacific region, will take place in Bali (23-24 March) and Hong Kong (31 August–1
September).
The
forums are two-day events comprising a series of 20-minute pre-scheduled one-on-one appointments between top MICE suppliers and key
meeting and incentive buyers. A wide range of suppliers will be represented at each event –
including hotels, hotel groups, conference centres and DMCs – to meet with carefully selected MICE buyers from the
Asia Pacific region.
Over the two-day
forums, attendees will have a minimum of 25 face-to-face meetings with a selection of agencies and companies such as Shell
Oil and Sony. Designed to focus on business, the events also aim to be enjoyable and include networking activities and a social
programme.
Alastair Lennox, Managing Director, M&I Forums Asia,
said, “Since the introduction of M&I Forums in 2006, we have continued to experience
strong growth over the past three years because of the unique service we are offering. There are fewer opportunities for hoteliers to reach the
MICE market in Asia than in Europe. These forums will provide the opportunity to develop the MICE industry in Asia and allow meeting planners
to develop relationships within the industry.”
