UFI Asia-Pacific Conference goes to Macau in 2024

UFI, the Global Association of the Exhibition Industry, will hold its 17th UFI Asia-Pacific Conference in Macau on March 7-8, 2024.

Hosted by the Macau Fair & Trade Association, the 2024 UFI Asia-Pacific Conference will feature two days of expert panels and keynote sessions from exhibition industry leaders, tackling hot topics and identifying opportunities in the APAC region.

Synthia Chan, council chairperson for the Macau Trade & Fair Association, said it has been a “long and winding road” to getting UFI to hold the APAC Conference in Macau, but has finally succeeded.

The original plan was to host UFI Asia-Pacific Conference in 2020, but the global pandemic delayed that by four years.

This year, close to 220 exhibition industry leaders from Asia and beyond gathered in Kuala Lumpur for the 2023 UFI Asia-Pacific Conference in Malaysia – the first time the conference was held face-to-face following the 2019 edition in Tokyo, Japan.

Pre-registration is open for the 2024 UFI Asia-Pacific Conference.
