CIBTM MAJOR PLATFORM FOR FUTURE BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

Future business development and return on investment are key drivers for exhibitors attending The China Incentive Business Travel and Meetings Exhibition (CIBTM - www.cibtm.com), taking place between 8-10 September 2009 at the China National Convention Center (CNCC) in Beijing and co-hosted by the Beijing Tourism Administration (BTA).

With exhibitors looking to do business with both high quality regional and international buyers, CIBTM offers a three-day forum for best business, best professional education and best networking.

“CIBTM is a great gateway for organisations whether Asian organisations trying to reach the west, or western organisations reaching out to China and Asia. CIBTM, in addition to being held in one of the greatest potential growth markets, provides us with an international venue to help us strengthen our credibility and presence as an international destination”, says June Matsumoto, Director of Marketing and Business Development, Hawaii Convention Centre.

Returning exhibitor Charles Drewe from Drewe Associates, representing the Auckland International Convention Centre for the first time says, “CIBTM is an important event for us because it takes place in an exciting and rapidly developing region that is well placed to ride out the current economic storm. We believe that, while the rest of the world is struggling through recession, regions like China and the Far East will take the initiative and capitalise on business opportunities which Drewe Associates intend to take full advantage of.”

Graham Kiy, General Manager, Zendai Hotel commented,  “CIBTM is so well represented with national and international buyers, and key players in the MICE industry, the opportunities for doing business and networking are great.”
