UFI Asia Pacific Conference 2021

IPIM, members of the Convention and Exhibition Industry Development Committee, and representatives of local MICE associations joined the UFI Asia Pacific Conference 2021 online on 20 May. It was announced at the conference that the UFI Asia Pacific Conference 2022 will be held in Macao, which is expected to give new impetus to MICE and the peripheral industries of Macao.

The conference this year, comprised of several sessions including group discussions, was attended online by MICE industry leaders from over 20 regions worldwide, who discussed issues being tackled both by the industry and in daily life in Asia and other parts of the world in the post-pandemic era. By organising industry professionals to participate in this conference, IPIM seeks to deepen the exchange between event managers and professional exhibition organisers in Macao and their counterparts in the Asia-Pacific region and relevant international associations, thereby advancing the industry’s development and promoting the image and strengths of Macao as a MICE destination to attract more events to the city.

As early as in 2019, IPIM successfully secured the right to host the UFI Asia Pacific Conference 2020 in collaboration with UFI members of Macao, but the event was cancelled due to the pandemic. The event postponed to 2022 to be held in Macao.
