The B2B information, events, and marketing solutions provider in the travel sector, Northstar Travel Group, announces the opening of a significant hosted buyer driven expo for the Asia Pacific meetings sector.
The Meetings Show Asia Pacific (www.themeetingsshow-apac.com), sponsored by the Singapore Tourism Board, will be held in Singapore from April 17–18, 2024 at the Marina Bay Sands Sands Expo & Convention Centre, inviting international exhibitors and a crowd of qualified and hosted buyers.
Singapore serves as a hub for MICE and business in Global-Asia. Singapore was selected as the host city for the premiere of The Meetings Show Asia Pacific because it serves as a gateway to the rapidly developing Asia Pacific area and is home to a thriving business community, providing access to new partnerships and business ideas.
The event will be backed by an exclusive hosted buyer programme, bringing senior meetings, conventions, events, and incentives buyers to a bustling tradeshow floor. It will feature Asian and international locations, venues, hotels, and other essential providers. Along with a conference offering a stimulating educational programme and a number of top-notch networking opportunities, a special prescheduled meetings platform will offer a private setting for conducting business.
The Meetings Show Asia Pacific is a development of the venerable ‘The Meetings Show’ brand, which is held annually in London, and will further bolster Northstar Meetings Group’s global portfolio of media, events, information, and marketing solutions.
“With our continued commitment to better serve the APAC region, our depth of industry knowledge, and the experienced meetings professionals who work in our UK, Singapore, and US offices, it became apparent there was an opportunity to bring our world-class experiences to the Asia Pacific meetings market under the established and successful brand of The Meetings Show,” said Jason Young, CEO of Northstar Travel Group.
The Deputy Chief Executive of the Singapore Tourism Board, Yap Chin Siang, commented on the debut by saying: “We are thrilled to welcome The Meetings Show Asia Pacific’s debut in Singapore, a perfect venue for global MICE organisations to network, develop new relationships, and build their enterprises. The selection of Singapore as the host confirms our status as the region’s top location for MICE events. Participants from The Meetings Show Asia Pacific will be welcomed in Singapore in 2024.
