<h2><strong>Latest outlook for MICE, events, and business travel in APAC</strong></h2>
<p>Travel and tourism are bouncing back, with international arrivals to most APAC destinations expected to recover pre-pandemic levels this or next year. All in all, the return of MICE and events has been strong.</p>
<p>In the 17 April session titled <em>The Outlook for Business Travel & Events in APAC (MICE)</em>, <strong>Michael Shoory, Senior Economist with Tourism Economics</strong> will share projections for tourism for APAC countries in
coming years, specifically with regard to business travel, and discuss the rebound of MICE events worldwide.</p>
<p>The following day, on 18 April, in this session titled <em>Latest Trends in Global MICE</em>, <strong>June Kim, director of Kim’s M&T / regional manager of MPI Academy Korea</strong>, will provide the latest global MICE trends,
and will present the latest data and analysis as provided by the Global MICE Collaborative, comprising MPI, SITE and IAEE.</p>
<p> </p>
<h2><strong>The Meeting Planner Perspective: March 2024 Northstar Meetings Group/Cvent PULSE Survey</strong></h2>
<p>Northstar Meetings Group recently conducted the first-ever global survey of meetings industry planners, comparing planners' expectations, opportunities and challenges across North America, EMEA and APAC.</p>
<p>Moderated by <strong>James Lancaster, Editorial Director of Northstar Meetings Group</strong>, this session on 17 April will present and discuss the results, with insights provided from NMG experts.</p>
<p> </p>
<h2><strong>The Future is Yesterday (17 April)</strong></h2>
<p>Today’s world is more connected, yet more divided than ever, and the question persists: How do real-world factors such as the geo-political tensions and the growing Gen-Z workforce implicate and affect the future of business
events?</p>
<p>In a panel discussion attended by speakers including <strong>Sherrif Karamat, CEO of PCMA</strong>, and <strong>Wee Min Ong, VP of sales & MICE at Marina Bay Sands</strong>, this session seeks to understand how best to connect
people and communities to foster understanding instead of dwelling on differences.</p>
<p> </p>
<h2><strong>Sustainability-focused sessions</strong></h2>
<p>The industry has witnessed a notable shift towards sustainability, and MICE professionals are increasingly adopting stronger emphasis on sustainable practices.</p>
<p>With sessions such as <em>Regenerative Rising: Unleashing the Power of Events to Deliver Social and Environmental Change</em> and <em>Certification or Transparency: Winning Formulas in the Journey to Tell Your Sustainability
Story</em>, attendees will have the chance to hear from <strong>MEET TAIWAN </strong>as well as <strong>Global Destinations Sustainability Movement's Guy Bigwood </strong>as they speak about the growth of regenerative
tourism and events, while touching on topics such as eco-friendly initiatives.</p>
<p> </p>
<h2><strong>Elevating MICE Experiences with the Power of Luxury</strong></h2>
<p>If you’ve ever considered enhancing your events with luxury experiences, or find yourself constantly on the lookout for new ways to boost attendee engagement and satisfaction, this session is for you.</p>
<p><strong>Alexis Lhoyer, CEO & co-founder of Chab Events</strong> will share how incorporating exceptional experiences can transform MICE events and leave lasting impressions on attendees, with case studies and expert insights
galore.</p>
<p></p>
<h2><strong>Sustainable Event Professional Certificate (SEPC) Bespoke Introduction Course (17-18 April)</strong></h2>
<p>In this two-day workshop, participants will have a front-seat introduction to sustainable events and social impact, learning about topics and issues including managing and measuring carbon emissions, materials management and
circularity, event accessibility, and community service.</p>
<p>What’s more – all attendees will receive accreditation from the Events Industry Council upon completion of the course.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Registration is free for validated buyers in the MICE industry, while trade visitors may purchase an entry pass for US$100. All trade and hosted buyers will be vetted to be qualified for the complimentary benefits.</p>

Photo Credit: The Meetings Show APAC Expect two days of insightful discussions and educational opportunities at The Meetings Show Asia Pacific 2024. Debuting in Singapore on 17-18 April, this event will feature back-to-back presentations and panel discussions focused on pertinent topics ranging from sustainability to technology and workforce management. Organised by Northstar Travel Group and supported by the Singapore Tourism Board, the conference and exhibition will be hosted at the Marina Bay Sands Expo and Convention Centre, and will see the gathering of destinations, venues, hotels, technology providers, and key suppliers from all across the Asia-Pacific MICE industry. Here are six sessions that TMS APAC attendees won’t want to miss: LATEST OUTLOOK FOR MICE, EVENTS, AND BUSINESS TRAVEL IN APAC Travel and tourism are bouncing back, with international arrivals to most APAC destinations expected to recover pre-pandemic levels this or next year. All in all, the return of MICE and events has been strong. In the 17 April session titled The Outlook for Business Travel & Events in APAC (MICE), Michael Shoory, Senior Economist with Tourism Economics will share projections for tourism for APAC countries in coming years, specifically with regard to business travel, and discuss the rebound of MICE events worldwide. The following day, on 18 April, in this session titled Latest Trends in Global MICE, June Kim, director of Kim’s M&T / regional manager of MPI Academy Korea, will provide the latest global MICE trends, and will present the latest data and analysis as provided by the Global MICE Collaborative, comprising MPI, SITE and IAEE. THE MEETING PLANNER PERSPECTIVE: MARCH 2024 NORTHSTAR MEETINGS GROUP/CVENT PULSE SURVEY Northstar Meetings Group recently conducted the first-ever global survey of meetings industry planners, comparing planners' expectations, opportunities and challenges across North America, EMEA and APAC. Moderated by James Lancaster, Editorial Director of Northstar Meetings Group, this session on 17 April will present and discuss the results, with insights provided from NMG experts. THE FUTURE IS YESTERDAY (17 APRIL) Today’s world is more connected, yet more divided than ever, and the question persists: How do real-world factors such as the geo-political tensions and the growing Gen-Z workforce implicate and affect the future of business events? In a panel discussion attended by speakers including Sherrif Karamat, CEO of PCMA, and Wee Min Ong, VP of sales & MICE at Marina Bay Sands, this session seeks to understand how best to connect people and communities to foster understanding instead of dwelling on differences. SUSTAINABILITY-FOCUSED SESSIONS The industry has witnessed a notable shift towards sustainability, and MICE professionals are increasingly adopting stronger emphasis on sustainable practices. With sessions such as Regenerative Rising: Unleashing the Power of Events to Deliver Social and Environmental Change and Certification or Transparency: Winning Formulas in the Journey to Tell Your Sustainability Story, attendees will have the chance to hear from MEET TAIWAN as well as Global Destinations Sustainability Movement's Guy Bigwood as they speak about the growth of regenerative tourism and events, while touching on topics such as eco-friendly initiatives. ELEVATING MICE EXPERIENCES WITH THE POWER OF LUXURY If you’ve ever considered enhancing your events with luxury experiences, or find yourself constantly on the lookout for new ways to boost attendee engagement and satisfaction, this session is for you. Alexis Lhoyer, CEO & co-founder of Chab Events will share how incorporating exceptional experiences can transform MICE events and leave lasting impressions on attendees, with case studies and expert insights galore. SUSTAINABLE EVENT PROFESSIONAL CERTIFICATE (SEPC) BESPOKE INTRODUCTION COURSE (17-18 APRIL) In this two-day workshop, participants will have a front-seat introduction to sustainable events and social impact, learning about topics and issues including managing and measuring carbon emissions, materials management and circularity, event accessibility, and community service. What’s more – all attendees will receive accreditation from the Events Industry Council upon completion of the course. Registration is free for validated buyers in the MICE industry, while trade visitors may purchase an entry pass for US$100. All trade and hosted buyers will be vetted to be qualified for the complimentary benefits.
