We are very excited to finally be working with the real thing. The opening of these new venues for large-scale special events allows us to exercise our creative talents in wooing clients to Singapore, which now, without doubt, has the best and widest choice in Asia for large meetings and events.

The wonder of the IRs is the flexibility and range of experiences they offer. Each resort provides a very different experience and ambiance, bringing more options online for medium-size meetings and new activities and experiences for incentive groups. This is sure to increase Singapore’s appeal to a much wider clientele.

The international flair that MBS and RWS bring to Singapore with top-class international dining and entertainment, including acclaimed shows and celebrity Michelin-star chefs from around the globe, will hold great appeal for international associations and corporate organisations who are looking to attract Asia Pacific audiences.

The IRs have made Singapore a more flexible destination, which for a DMC is great: we guide our clients to match the right experience with their events and now there genuinely is something for everyone, which makes the whole process a fascinating and rewarding one.
