Together each achieves more
MICE bouncing back in Taipei!
THE winds of change and the waves of “old habits” will create a MICE tsunami in the years to come, “all” Taipei’s MICE suppliers are working hard to ensure that health guidelines are met and exceeded, so participants will know they are as safe, maybe even safer, on a planned and tightly managed MICE trip. Taipei City Government has also made a series of preparations for pandemic prevention, such as relief programs, business revitalisation plans, quarantine hotels, a disease prevention taxi fleet, employment subsidies and grant programs for people under quarantine, and more.
Secondly they are collectively exploring, and now implementing, the technologies related to on-line conferencing, enabling hybrid meetings and thus enlarging audiences. The Department of Information and Tourism of Taipei City Government Commissioner Yi-Ting Liu commented, “Entering the post-pandemic period, hybrid exhibitions and meetings that combine the digitalization and transformation from physical to virtual will be the trend. In the future, we will create
new opportunities for the MICE industry by connecting with experts from different industries and fields.”
In New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern recently said in a Q+A interview, that officials were looking at tailored criteria for events and that “We’re going to follow, pretty closely, the
Taiwanese model. They worked up a framework for mass gatherings that’s been quite successful.”
All Taipei’s MICE stakeholders are ready to soon serve Asian
MICE participants to its fullest extend and capitalize on their country’s enhanced image on making sure their citizens, and thus their visitors are as safe as humanly possible.
