The #MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conventions, Exhibitions) business is a crucial and interesting sector for DERTOUR Hotels & Resorts Hotels and Resorts. According to the MICE Report 2023, the increasing number of large-scale events, such as trade fairs, conferences, and meetings, has significantly risen in recent years, accounting for 58% of all business trips. That`s why we are also keen to strengthen our focus to host meetings and incentives in our hotels. Many companies are nowadays interested to reward employes by combining effective work meetings with creative and fun activities as well as sightseeing. Moreover, the choice of venue is considered a decisive factor in determining participation in any event. It is imperative that a high-quality hotel, providing both relaxation and space for meetings, enhances the experience. Since our hotels are located in the most beautiful holiday destinations, we are able to serve these needs very well. #mice #dthr #businesstravel #sentido #calimera #ananea #playitas #aldiana

In tourism, M.I.C.E stands for Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions. MICE represents a sector of business tourism focused on organizing and hosting professional events. ⭐️ MEETINGS are typically single-day events held in hotel conference rooms or convention centers. They gather professionals to discuss specific challenges or set goals for the organization. ⭐️ INCENTIVES are travel rewards provided by companies to employees, groups, or partners in recognition of exceptional performance. These trips, often to resorts or popular hospitality venues, boost employee loyalty and motivation. ⭐️ CONFERENCES are large-scale events spanning several days, aimed at sharing knowledge within a corporate group. They often feature guest speakers and are open to the public, extending beyond the organization’s key members. ⭐️ EXHIBITIONS or trade shows, allow organizations to showcase their products and services to the public. These events facilitate networking, business development, and the establishment of professional relationships. Organizing successful MICE events requires the expertise of a seasoned travel agency capable of providing comprehensive services. These include air tickets, logistics, meet-and-greet services, transfers, transportation, hotel accommodations, excursions, conference venues, themed events, and gala dinners. Feel free to reach out to us if you need any assistance with your MICE requirements. #Ueventsph #UEvents #employeengagement #corporateevents #awardsnight #events #mice #miceplanners

The Evolving Landscape of the Travel Industry: A Surge in Corporate Presidents Clubs and Incentive Sales Programs. The Rise of Exclusive Recognition. Corporate Presidents Clubs have long been a staple in the realm of employee recognition, reserved for the crème de la crème of a company’s sales force and leadership. Traditionally, these accolades have been associated with luxury retreats, exclusive gatherings, and high-level networking opportunities in illustrious locations. What's changing, however, is the scale and diversity of these offerings, as well as the industries and companies adopting such practices. Global Expansion of Incentive Programs. As the global economy becomes more interconnected, destinations across the world are opening their doors to corporate groups, catering to a broad spectrum of cultural and experiential preferences. From the tranquil beaches of the Maldives to the bustling streets of Tokyo, the options for incentive travel programs have become nearly limitless. This global expansion not only enriches the experiences offered to top achievers but also drives significant economic benefits to a wider range of destinations. The Impact on the Travel Industry This trend signifies a boon for the travel and tourism sector, especially in the wake of challenges posed by global events such as the COVID-19 pandemic. As more companies invest in incentive travel, service providers in the industry — from hotels and resorts to event organizers and local tour operators — are innovating and expanding their offerings to cater to this lucrative market segment. Moreover, the personalized nature of these trips demands a higher level of service and customization, encouraging the industry to evolve and adapt to the nuanced needs of corporate groups. This push towards excellence not only benefits the direct recipients of these incentive programs but also elevates the standard of service within the industry at large. The expansion of Corporate Presidents Clubs and incentive sales programs across global destinations reflects a dynamic shift in the landscape of employee recognition and corporate culture. By leveraging the power of travel to inspire, reward, and engage, companies are not only enhancing their own performance but also contributing to the broader evolution of the travel industry. As we move forward, the integration of innovation, sustainability, and personalized experiences will continue to shape the future of corporate incentive travel, offering exciting opportunities for both businesses and destinations worldwide.

First of all kudos to GBTA | Global Business Travel Association for creating an Accessibility Toolkit. This is a long overdue area of our industry that frankly has been neglected and not prioritized for far too long. I have personally witnessed the neglect while attending conferences and events where the needs for those requiring better accessibility go unaddressed or marginally provided. Imagine how frustrating this is for those requiring better accessibility while trying to navigate the challenging logistical layouts of hotel venues, conference centers, exhibition halls, dining and lobby areas, and even dealing with the limited number of hotel rooms that can accommodate for their special needs. I hope other associations can piggyback on GBTA's toolkit and right set what has long been a neglected part of the business travel and meetings and events industries for way too long. #eventprofs #meetingprofs #accessibilityforall #biztravel Meeting Professionals International GBTA | Global Business Travel Association GBTA Foundation #APIeventprofs Proske
