One of the key advantages of attending forums like this is the chance to connect with like-minded professionals and gain insights into how corporates, suppliers, and SMEs are navigating the travel industry. It is a great platform to understand current trends, innovations, and the challenges we all face. Engaging in these discussions not only broadens our perspective but also helps us identify new opportunities for collaborations. These interactions are invaluable for anyone looking to stay informed about landscape of the travel sector.

I would like to congratulate the DDP team for organising such an event. Initially, I was not confident about having potential corporate clients on a Saturday, but I was pleasantly surprised by the turnout. We had high-profile corporates from various cities, including Bengaluru, Pune, Hyderabad, Delhi, and Ahmedabad. During the event, I had 33 productive meetings and many of the companies I had not interacted with before, showcasing a lot of potential for Turkish Airlines to engage in new contracts and explore the MICE sector.

The event provides an opportunity to meet face-to-face with various vendors, which definitely adds value to our business. We can establish direct connections and reach out to them as needed. It is a customised approach where we know exactly which vendor to contact based on our requirements. It is always a pleasure to connect with each one of them. Attendees appreciated the opportunity to share their thoughts, exchange ideas, and be heard. It is important that such events are not one-sided, but rather foster active, engagement and opens valuable dialogue.

I must say this show is an excellent platform for both buyers and exhibitors. It offers a great opportunity to connect with prospective clients and meet top-tier companies, all under one roof.

I want to say that DDP team has done an excellent job with this event. It is truly a one-stop shop for everything—whether it is hotels, convention centers, MICE movements, or tourism boards. As a buyer, I have had the opportunity to meet a wide range of sellers, and it has been valuable. It was my second time attending. This time too it has been an excellent platform for building contacts and taking discussions to the next level. I have had many fruitful conversations, and finalising partnerships with the vendors has been seamless.
Jasminder S Brishan (Jassi), Professional Consultant, Onity Group Inc.
It was fantastic to be back at the Travel MICE and Corporate Show. This year, we were excited to see new vendor partners like Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation and Jio Convention, adding a local perspective. The richer local flavour enhanced the experience altogether. It was a wonderful opportunity to connect, and discover innovative products. Engaging with these new partners allows us to understand local preferences and market trends, paving way for exciting partnerships and gather industry knowledge.
Romita Mer, Associate Director, Sales, JW Marriott Bengaluru Prestige Golfshire Resort and Spa
This event always serves as an excellent platform for networking with professionals from corporate space we may not have connected with in the past. It offers a great opportunity to build new relationships. We have generated two to three leads for upcoming business, which is a fantastic start to potential partnerships. Being based in Bengaluru, this event has helped us to meet clients from other cities, which is a huge advantage. I am confident that the connections we have made will benefit us in the future.

The Travel MICE and Corporate Show enables attendees to explore new options and meet various vendors. It is not just about meeting people or vendors; it is also a fantastic networking platform. What stands out to me is that every year brings something new—whether it is innovative visa services now handled by specialised organisations rather than just travel management companies or emerging experiential travel options. These new developments provide fresh perspectives and knowledge that we can take back and implement.

I have been attending the Travel MICE and Corporate Show for a few years now. I appreciate how well-organised the event was and the supplier connections I made at the glittering event. Attending such business event provided me with 15 to 20 useful supplier contacts. It was not just about the meetings for me, I have also gained personal value from the experiences and insights this event offered, especially through the informative panel discussions. Overall, this event has been a fantastic resource for both my professional and personal growth.
