APBP BENEFITS
Buyer Reviews
Peer-sharing with other corporate buyers was definitely a key benefit as I was able to explore their business policies and apply them to my organisation. New ideas were also explored and evaluated through insightful forums. These will be very applicable for my organisation in the long run.
Engaging with fellow peers, gaining valuable insights from key leaders in the Association Management sector and building connections with new and potential partners were among my top highlights. Presentations by Convention Bureaus and Destination Management Companies kept me updated with new MICE offerings in the APAC region.
The event never fails to deliver good business opportunities. I met many old and new partners, some of whom I will definitely work with in the future. Exhibitors are well-equipped with product knowledge, and I took away plenty of creative possibilities.
The show is a valuable resource to expand our network and compare suppliers and products. I especially benefitted through new initiatives Meet-The-Corporates and Say Hi to Everyone.
The appointments I had were meaningful. New connections were made in addition to reconnecting with suppliers I know. The education sessions were a highlight with extensive information available, meeting our objectives for attending.
Through the various business and networking sessions, I discovered new vendors and garnered potential contacts that will help greatly in my MICE business.
