ExpoInn Suites & Convention is poised for remarkable growth, owing to its prime location in Greater Noida in the National Capital Region. In addition to its established customer base, the venue capitalizes on events hosted by India Expo Mart. With expansive facilities capable of hosting numerous guests, it’s an appealing prospect for corporate clients seeking large-scale gatherings.
Furthermore, the burgeoning business community surrounding the hotel presents a wealth of opportunities. These new enterprises are expected to seek services, whether for meetings, conferences, or social gatherings, making ExpoInn Suites & Convention a pivotal hub in catering to diverse business needs. The strategic location and versatile offerings position the establishment as a thriving centre for events and a beacon for the evolving corporate landscape.
Recently appointed as the General Manager of ExpoInn Suites & Convention, Barun Gupta unveiled his ambitious agenda for the coming year. His vision underscores a commitment to evolving and expanding the offerings at ExpoInn Suites & Convention, transforming the venue into a versatile hub that caters to a diverse range of clientele and event types, thus ensuring a vibrant and promising future for the establishment. He says, “My endeavour will be to introduce new avenues of business, explore untapped markets, and offer a world full of opportunities in terms of weddings, get-togethers and formal conventions.”
salient features
ExpoInn Suites & Convention has a brand-new, luxury convention centre and, in consideration of its seamless connection with the exhibition halls, has the potential to emerge as the best located and the most sought-after business property in Greater Noida.
He says that the thriving commercial landscape surrounding the hotel justifies his assertion that the existing 134 rooms may soon prove insufficient. Therefore, they might need to consider the prospect of developing another property with a comparable inventory in the near future.
seamless connections
Gupta claims, “The smooth linkage between the event halls and our 134-room hotel provides patrons with the convenience to effortlessly traverse to their exhibition area, enabling them to network with buyers and potential clients within the hotel premises, extending well into the evening.”
When asked about what exactly MICE organisers are looking for, he highlighted several demands. He emphasises on the features at the expo centre. “It consists of a wide range of air conditioned exhibition halls, parking areas, broadcasting and secretarial facilities, security, surveillance and are designed to handle masses of any magnitude. This, coupled with the extensive parking areas which can accommodate thousands of vehicles (with electric vehicle charging station) and helipads for three copters, are the features that all MICE organisers usually look for,” he says.
Gupta emphasizes on the fact that a prominent and evolving trend spanning multiple sectors involves the focus on directly presenting products or services to their specific audience. This holds true for both business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer (B2C) interactions, highlighting the enduring principle that ‘Seeing is believing’. This underlines the importance of persuasive influence of first-hand encounters and visual demonstrations in building trust.
