Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/10/2010 -- Asia's pre-eminent meeting, incentive, conference and exhibition (MICE) centre has garnered the highly-coveted accolade of Business Superbrand in Singapore. Earlier this year, Singex Venues Pte Ltd, the manager and operator of Singapore Expo, was invited to participate in the closed-door evaluation by the Superbrands Singapore panel. Singapore Expo was ultimately assessed to have fulfilled all of the panel’s stringent standards, namely, Achievement, Market Share, Recognition, Reputation, and Social Responsibility, and was therefore awarded the prestigious title.

Business Superbrands is an internationally recognised award which pays tribute to the best and most valued business-to-business brands around the world and makes its debut in Singapore this year. The case study on Singapore Expo can be accessed here.

Commenting on the award, Mr Chandran Nair, Deputy General Manager of Singex Venues, says, “We are truly honoured to be recognised as the top convention and exhibition centre in Singapore. Receiving this award is a strong testament and glowing tribute to all our team members and their unwavering dedication, hard work and passion. As the global MICE landscape continues to grow and evolve, this accolade will definitely further encourage all of us to keep innovating, delivering service excellence and reinventing ourselves as a one-stop business event and venue solutions partner. Ultimately, we see our role as one that seeks to further strengthen Singapore’s position as the preferred business travel and MICE destination.”

Mr Mark Pointer, CEO of Superbrands Singapore, adds, “Singapore Expo is a world-class facility and one of the very best business event venues in Asia. We are delighted to be able to recognise Singapore Expo as one of Singapore’s leading B2B brands and pay tribute to the management company and all of the people who work behind the scene to build and develop the business and the brand.”

Singapore Expo was one of the three Best International Venue finalists at Exhibition News Awards earlier this year and is now vying for Best Business Event Venue Experience and Best Business Event Services Experience at the Singapore Experience Awards 2010 and Best Convention & Exhibition Centre at TTG Asia Travel Awards 2010.
