Singapore – The MEET TAIWAN networking event returns for its annual Singapore destination roadshow with their latest MICE and incentive travel campaign, High Five Taiwan. Organized by the Taiwan External Trade Development Association (TAITRA) and powered by TTG Events, a delegation of 9 Taiwanese MICE companies that include representatives from travel agencies, airlines, venues, DMCs and Taipei City Government, will meet about 80 buyers and media with strong interests in Taiwan on 27 June 2018 at Mandarin Orchard Hotel.
Guests also get to experience Taiwan’s 360 ‘High Five Taiwan’ campaign with an immersive glimpse into the beauty of Taiwan’s nature, food, sights, people and culture, and tradition within the metropolitan city through a VR showcase.
Shared Jessie Tseng, Executive Director of MEET TAIWAN, “Taiwan is rated one of the most ideal destinations for incentive travels within Asia. Nature and culture surrounds us and we have exceptionally modern facilities coupled with technology and mature infrastructure, numerous resources within our MICE programme, and most importantly, the Taiwanese enthusiasm and hospitality that shine through to make every trip to Taiwan unforgettable.”
MEET TAIWAN is Taiwan’s one-stop MICE promotion programme for international and domestic MICE companies keen on bringing their events to the territory with key services including matchmaking with local industries, bidding assistance, the provision of cloud technology and mobile application services for new shows and conferences, subsidies and flexible entry permits, corporate social responsibility and corporate incentive itineraries.
Notably, the half-day event will elaborate on the incentives of MICE in Taiwan. Taipei city government representatives will present to buyers and media on the many initiatives and subventions they can enjoy. Representative from the iconic Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center, Taiwan’s largest tradeshow venue, will unveil details of their second mega hall slated to officially open early 2019 but has already started taking venue bookings.
The roadshow will culminate in a themed panel discussion by Eagle Tour, Lion Travel Service, and Taiwan Tour Travel on the ease of creating unforgettable experiences in Taiwan ‘as easy as ABC’ through their specialties in catering for Halal travel, Young Generation and Life Experiences tours, cultural hands-on activities, and unique itineraries on food and train travel tours; followed by a one-on-one table top session, a networking lunch and lucky draw to win a ticket to Taipei sponsored by EVA Air & China Airlines.
The Asia Super Team campaign also returns with the theme ‘Dare To Future’. Each year, a chosen corporate team from 8 targeted countries – Korea, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, and the Philippines – come to Taiwan and compete while experiencing Taiwan’s MICE facilities, scenic locations, cultures, and unique city features through play. The winning team is then awarded a Taiwan incentive travel package valued at USD 50,000.
The 9 Taiwanese companies that will exclusively flown in for the networking event are Eagle Tour, Lion Travel Service Co., Ltd., MSL Group, Taiwan Tour, ABLY Conference and Exhibition, Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center, Taipei City Government, EVA Air, and China Airlines.
