I had the pleasure to attend Singapore MICE Forum 2023 “The Great Reset” organised by Singapore Association of Convention & Exhibition Organisers & Suppliers (SACEOS) this morning. It was wonderful meeting old friends from the event organiser industry and got introduced to new ones. Always learning new things; my takeaways from the forum: 1. Reset but not with a BAU mindset 2. Curate the show, pure promotion days are over 3. China , India and Africa are the markets in the radar. However, don’t just geo clone 4. #artificialintelligence is defining the industry on B2B increasingly 5. Growing need to acquire domain and vertical expertise within show organisers 6. Transparent is a key factor for partnership & collaborations Digesting these points and how it would work for a trade associations. :) Happy weekend!

TIPM/MRANTI at the 26th China Beijing International High-Tech Expo! 🇨🇳🤝🇲🇾 Our Chief Ecosystem Officer, Safuan Zairi, recently attended the prestigious China Beijing International High-Tech Expo 2024, marking TIPM/MRANTI’s first participation in this globally recognised event. Here’s a glimpse of his insightful journey: 🌐 Day 1: Kicking off the expo, which has been running for 26 years and is now officially recognised by the Chinese Government as China’s premier High-Tech Expo, TIPM/MRANTI was honoured to represent MOSTI at the groundbreaking CHITECH 2024 component. This new addition to the expo underscores the importance of international collaboration in high-tech innovation. 🌐 Day 2: Engaging the crowd at our South East Asia booth, we secured a bonus interview with China News Service (CNS). The expo showcased amazing new technologies, from AI-driven Sinseh for Traditional Chinese Medicine to Autonomous Tractors, highlighting the innovation prowess of China’s R&D, tech agencies, GLCs, and SMEs. A key message conveyed was the need for Chinese tech companies to view Malaysian tech companies as collaborative partners in R&D. This collaboration is essential for mutual growth and innovation. 🌐 Day 3: We presented to and engaged with numerous Chinese companies and agencies. There is also potential for exploring partnerships in other BRICS countries through the organiser, MP Group. This participation paves the way for future collaborations, opening doors for Malaysian companies to access cutting-edge technologies and fostering a culture of innovation back home. By engaging with global leaders in technology, TIPM/MRANTI is ensuring that Malaysia stays at the forefront of technological advancements, ultimately benefiting our local industries and economy.
