Analyst Review
Asia-Pacific is one of the fastest developing regions in the world, and thus, strong economic growth is one of the major factors that boosts the growth of the MICE industry in this region. Despite slow growth of the Chinese economy, countries such as Singapore, Thailand, Japan, and India, have experienced demand from buyers at record levels in recent years and offer lucrative business opportunities for investors. Rapid growth in the business travel sector in recent decades has positioned Asia-Pacific as the largest market in the world. However, owing to lack of well-developed infrastructure in the region , the prime focus of the governments is on infrastructural development, such as roads, airports, and others, to cater to the emerging demands for the travel industry. Ease of visa restrictions, investments in better infrastructure, and high demand in commercial aviation from Asia-Pacific are some of the other factors that fuel the growth of the Asia-Pacific MICE industry. In addition, high penetration of internet & technology in the densely populated countries supports the growth of the market. Therefore, developments in MICE industry majorly drive the economic growth, regional cooperation, and intellectual development in the region.
