MCI Opens Beijing Office

Following the successful launch and growth of MCI’s Shanghai office in 2006 and the opening of MCI Hong Kong in 2008, the company has now opened another office in China - MCI Beijing. The new office will provide event management and strategic guidance solutions for associations in the Central Business District of Beijing.

MCI Beijing already has substantial business secured not only for the rest of 2009 but also in 2010.

In July 2009, MCI will welcome 3,000 delegates representing the Million Dollar Round Table, a global life insurance and financial services association, to Beijing for a two-day event filled with networking, industry knowledge sharing and sessions to inspire entrepreneurial spirit.

In 2010, MCI Beijing will manage the World Congress of Cardiology, expecting over 20,000 medical professionals from all the world’s corners who will engage and connect with each other for a full week of educational and technical sessions, networking and social occasions.

“It is my honor to join MCI and lead its 34th office worldwide. I am extremely impressed with the advancements China has made in the Meetings and Events industry; I greatly look forward to contributing to the industry’s success and to Beijing’s development. I have no doubt we will be able to exceed our clients’ expectations for creating memorable experiences,” said Suvi Saxén, General Manager, MCI Beijing.

Ms. Saxén has over 20 years experience in the meetings industry both in Europe and the USA; she recently relocated from Finland to China to lead the opening and on-going management of the MCI Beijing Office.

Ms. Saxén will lead a team of experts to manage events and to build associations’ communities through strategy and local membership development.
