The Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre hosted a cocktail reception last evening to commemorate the 22nd anniversary of the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC).
Over 300 clients, business associates, government officials and friends joined HML’s senior management executives and staff on this celebratory occasion.
Over the 22 years, HML has served 38,371 events and more than 63 million visitors.
These events have contributed significant economic benefits to Hong Kong by not only nourishing Hong Kong’s event industry, but also generating beneficial spin-offs for the tourism, transportation, food and beverage and entertainment industries.
These events have also created numerous jobs and raised Hong Kong’s international profile. More importantly, the numerous international trade exhibitions have provided the perfect and most effective platform for Hong Kong’s small and medium enterprises to showcase their products and services to buyers from all over the world.
The benefits generated for the community make HKCEC truly a Landmark for Success for Hong Kong.
In his remarks, Mr Cliff Wallace, Managing Director of HML, thanked all clients and business partners for their support, “We are fortunate to be entrusted to manage a magnificent building located in the heart of Hong Kong."
"We take pride in serving expanding recurrent exhibitions and introducing new events to our portfolio. In the last fiscal year ending 30 June 2010, a total of 1,185 exhibitions, conventions, banquets, corporate and special events were held in HKCEC, a 10% increase from the previous year."
'This remarkable achievement is attributed to the dedication, professionalism, experience and creativity of 870 enthusiastic staff. We believe, when our customers succeed, we succeed."
