Additionally, with sustainability being at the core of what we do, our focus lies in uplifting local economies and leaving a lasting and prosperous impact on local businesses. We have started hosting expos in various parts of the island not only to highlight that particular region but also to facilitate in uplifting the local economy.

We are moving away from the traditional way of doing things and offering more immersive experiences that include local businesses and communities. The SLCB extends its fullest support to any international agent who is interested inparticipating in this event.

To encourage participation, the SLCB is offering a subsidized package to MICE operators and travel agents who are based in Colombo, inviting them to explore the Southern Region and engage in the B2B sessions during the expo.

In a world where the dynamics of conventions and meetings are rapidly changing, the Southern MICE Expo 2024 aspires to be more than just an event. It serves as a gateway to unparalleled experiences, supporting local economies and leaving a lasting impact.
