SINGAPORE: The Singapore Tourism Board will start accepting applications to pilot large-scale meetings of up to 250 people from Oct 1, as part of plans to gradually resume economic activities in the country.
As more insights and data are obtained through these pilot events, STB will work with the MICE industry to adapt and adjust the protocols for safe business events, the agency said.“This move to start accepting applications to pilot events of up to 250 attendees also takes into account the importance of the MICE industry as well as the strong industry interest in and demand for business events,” STB said.
Mr Keith Tan, STB's chief executive, said: “The MICE sector is a strategic one for the Singapore economy, and its safe and gradual resumption will safeguard jobs and core capabilities. It will also help those in related sectors such as hospitality and aviation. For example, a travel insurance product is being developed for inbound travellers to cover critical COVID-19-related expenses, and it is expected to be ready by the fourth quarter of this year.to facilitate contact tracing.
This will be tested at a few trade shows, starting with a new event in November called TravelRevive, which is organised by ITB Asia and supported by STB.At the event, international delegates and businesses will come together to exchange ideas and reimagine the future of travel, STB said.
