TICA Destination Update

This issue, TICA’s Destination Update showcases Bangkok, the City of Angels as an ideal MICE venue for incentive travel as well as business meetings. The event organised in association with TCEB, provided TICA hotel members in Bangkok’s Riverside area with the opportunity to present their properties and destination to other TICA members in the DMC, PCO and EMC categories. This was aimed at informing of new updates and establishing first-hand experience to pass on to all clients. It was the perfect event for all TICA members to provide valuable feedback, help build relationships with each other as well as drive more business to the destination.
