Congratulations to Singapore EXPO on being awarded the Singapore MICE Sustainability Certification Gold by the Singapore Association of Convention & Exhibition Organisers & Suppliers (SACEOS). As Asia’s most sustainable MICE venue powered by onsite renewable energy, our dedicated team and partners at Singapore EXPO look forward to empowering organisers to hold sustainable events and contribute collectively towards Singapore’s vision of becoming APAC’s leading sustainable MICE destination by 2030, as well as Singapore achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2050. #SingaporeEXPO #SACEOS #Sustainability #SustainableEvents

✨ Celebrating Global Exhibitions Day in Singapore ✨ This #GlobalExhibitionsDay, we reaffirm our commitment to sustainability and our responsibility towards the environment. Through our events and at our managed venue Singapore EXPO, Constellar is dedicated to supporting Singapore's vision to become Asia Pacific's leading sustainable MICE destination by 2030 and achieving Net Zero emissions by 2050. Sustainability is a key pillar of our exhibitions portfolio, with events such as AtoZero.Official and Agri-Food Tech Expo Asia bringing together industry leaders and groundbreaking innovations that can accelerate collective action towards #SDGgoals. Our event experiences also aim to help clients and attendees reduce their carbon footprint through environmentally-responsible practices; last year's edition of the Singapore FinTech Festival pioneered green impact initiatives in sustainable dining and waste reduction, as well as partnerships with eco-conscious hoteliers, service providers and suppliers to encourage responsible participation amongst attendees. At Singapore EXPO, we aspire to be Asia’s leading sustainable event venue partner of choice. With sustainability as a key operating value, our focus is on renewable energy and sustainable building operations, onsite waste management, and sustainable F&B practices. Since the completion of Singapore’s largest rooftop single-site solar photovoltaic (PV) system at the venue last year, we have reduced our greenhouse gas emissions by 30% and cut our electricity consumption by more than half, enabling events at our venue to be powered by renewable energy whenever possible. As we celebrate #GED2024, we are honoured to be working alongside our partners at Singapore Association of Convention & Exhibition Organisers & Suppliers (SACEOS) and the greater MICE ecosystem in leveraging the transformative power of exhibitions to collectively build a more sustainable future.

Singapore’s largest and most experiential consumer electronics show, Consumer Electronics Exhibition (CEE), was abuzz last week when it convened over 120 exhibitors offering the latest lifestyle tech and smart home innovations from more than 300 leading brands. This year's edition attracted almost 88,000 attendees from 23 – 26 May at Suntec Convention Centre, growing its year-on-year visitorship by over 28%. In addition to best-selling gadgets and unbeatable deals, CEE 2024 put a spotlight on new-to-market consumer technology geared towards enabling a healthier Singapore and improving overall quality of life. This also included an experiential "Sleep Tech Zone" where consumers could learn how to improve their sleep quality and health through a wide range of personalised tech-enabled solutions. Also new at CEE this year was the dynamic Show & Tell stage, connecting brands and consumers through interactive live demonstrations and other stage activities. CEE also partnered with leading digital platforms such as ShopBack, Grab and TikTok Shop where consumers could gain additional cashback rewards and discounts on top of the best promotions at CEE. Environmentally-conscious shoppers also enjoyed rewards for embarking on their zero e-waste journey through myhalo’s trade-in and e-clutter collection offers. CEE is part of Constellar's consumer electronics and technology event series including the upcoming COMEX from 29 August to 1 September, which will offer the best deals on Consumer Electronics, Smart Home Living and Gaming products. Look out for more details coming soon on comexitshow.com.sg.

"I was warned that being a mom in this industry would be challenging, but I'm very grateful to my team and the leadership at #Constellar for allowing me the flexibility to find work-life balance, and for trusting in my ability to deliver results." As we celebrate Mother's Day this year, we are inspired by the passion and tenacity of project manager Denise T., who took on a new role shortly after becoming a first-time mom. Denise currently leads Process Innovation Asia Pacific Powered by ACHEMA (PIA), a new event in partnership with DECHEMA Ausstellungs-GmbH aimed at igniting growth for the region's process industries, which will be launching at Singapore EXPO this November. Since becoming a mom, Denise recognises the immense responsibility of being a guide and model for her child, a new perspective that has motivated her to focus on what truly matters at work. Working closely with our event partners who organise ACHEMA 2024, she is able to better understand the unique demands of the region's local markets and forge more meaningful relationships with clients to help them meet their objectives. While Denise has gamely taken on the challenge of bringing #PIA2024 to life alongside raising her child, she acknowledges that the learning curve at the beginning was steep. She is grateful to have a supportive work environment that enables her to excel while balancing work and motherhood. Shout-out to all the incredible moms for their amazing drive in providing a better future for the next generation. #HappyMothersDay #EventProfs #ThriveOnTeamwork #OwnTheOutcomes

#InspireThroughInnovation: Our Operations team at Singapore EXPO recently found a brilliant way to transform the workflow at our Apex plenary hall. Led by Tan Beng Hwee and Royston Scharenguivel, the team developed a creative solution to tackle the time-consuming and labour-intensive task of concealing our tiered seating system when not in use. Drawing inspiration from lighting trusses, they engineered a wheeled structure equipped with drapes that effortlessly covers the seating in 10 minutes – a task that previously took a full day of manual assembly work. This ingenuity not only enhances workplace safety but also significantly improves event setup efficiency. This Labour Day, we celebrate our teams' adaptability and problem-solving spirit that makes Constellar a better place to learn and grow. Shout-out to the game-changers and trailblazers in our events industry who challenge us to stay curious and work smarter. #LabourDay #Innovation #Teamwork #WorkplaceSafety #EventProfs #ConstellarPeople
