SINGAPORE – The president of the Singapore Association of Convention and Exhibition Organisers and Suppliers (SACEOS), Edward Liu, steps down as president in April.
Speaking to CMW, Liu, who still holds several international MICE posts including group MD of Conference and Exhibition Management Services and president of Asian exhibition association AFECA, said that he aims to use the remainder to of his time at SACEOS to establish a Singapore MICE Alliance to create a platform and voice for the MICE industry in the private sector.
