They were particularly interested in the synergistic advantages of the two regions in terms of venues, resources and policies.

The representatives from Macao MICE industry have actively introduced the advantages of their abundant venue resources and hotel supporting facilities, including the world-class hardware and software facilities which make Macao an ideal destination for conventions and exhibitions. At the same time, with the huge market for MICE events in the Pearl River Delta region, and Macao\u2019s unique advantage of \u201cOne Fair, Two Venues\u201d model, it was hoped that this Promotion Seminar could attract more Wuhan MICE events to Macao.<\/p>\n Strong Engagement Achieved at Nine Promotional Events with Rising Brand Influence<\/strong><\/p>\n The \u201cMacao-Hengqin Promotion Seminar\u201d has been held since July 2024 in many mainland cities, such as Shenzhen, Foshan, Guangzhou, Xi\u2019an, Chengdu, Shanghai, and Hangzhou (in chronological order).
