ASIA – The Thailand Convention and Exhibition Bureau (TCEB) and the International Association of Professional Congress Organisers (IAPCO) have joined forces to provide professional development training for PCOs in the Southeast Asian region.

The two organisations plan to host regional seminars from 2013 to 2015.

Akapol Sorasuchart, TCEB President, said: “TCEB is keenly aware of the importance of regional co-operation to boost professional standards within the industry. We expect the forthcoming economic integration within ASEAN in 2015 to drive amajor expansion of the events industry in Southeast Asia, and it is therefore crucial to ensure that we start now to develop world-class expertise within the region in order to meet global industry standards.

“We are, therefore, greatly honoured to have this opportunity to partner with IAPCO, whose world-renowned expertise and leadership in education can now help to develop the potential of conference organisers across the Southeast Asian region: in Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam.”
