TPB puts spotlight on Phl for MICECONnect 2019

The Tourism Promotions Board (TPB) Philippines is set to further strengthen the Philippine MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conventions, and Exhibits/Events) industry by gathering local MICE suppliers under one roof to showcase the country as a premium destination for international events and conferences.

Happening on Oct. 21-28, MICECONnect will offer trade and business opportunities for Philippine MICE sellers through business to business (B2B) sessions with foreign MICE buyers.

The event will also feature an experiential familiarization tour to select Philippine MICE destinations for the invited buyers composed of MICE organizers from corporations, associations, incentive houses and independent planning companies from the Americas, Europe, and Asia.

MICECONnect 2019 is a continuation of the long-standing Philippine MICE Conference (MICECON). The twoyear program, which began last year, provides not only comprehensive educational programs for local MICE stakeholders to learn new and effective global trends, approaches, and methods, but also business networking opportunities to help further develop the MICE industry in the country.

This year, MICEConnect will be held in conjunction with the 18th Philippine Travel Exchange (PHITEX).
