Suntec Singapore and Resorts World Sentosa are
to cross-sell each other. The agreement allows event
planners to offer their clients the opportunity to conduct their
exhibitions and day meetings within the Central Business District
in Suntec Singapore, and continue with after-hours social
functions at Resorts World Sentosa.
Together, the two will
cross-sell venues through joint sales calls, customised proposals
and event concepts to international meeting planners, whose guests
and delegates could enjoy seamless transfers between the two
venues, as well as exclusive and customised services and
experiences.
“We are really excited about
this partnership with Resorts World Sentosa which we strongly
believe will serve as a winning proposition. Together, we hold the
experience of the guests paramount and are committed to giving
business and leisure visitors the best of both worlds, providing
them with a true Singapore experience,” said Ong Wee Min, Director
of Sales and Client Services of Suntec Singapore. “This
proposition will entice, as well as, provide today’s business
travelers innovative options while they are in Singapore, thereby
strengthening and solidifying Singapore’s dominance in the MICE
industry worldwide.”
Ms Elena Arabadjieva,
Director of MICE at Resorts World Sentosa, said, “Resorts World
Sentosa is Singapore’s IR. As part of that philosophy, we are
committed to work with existing venues and industry players to
grow the MICE pie for Singapore. Our partnership with Suntec
Singapore, one of the strongest MICE players in this region, will
create a very compelling proposition to international meeting
planners who will look at Singapore with more than passing
interest.”
