The Centre’s general manager, Alan Pryor, shared: “The alliance presents a compelling business events proposition that provides a seamless and single point of first contact for meeting planners and event organisers. A private sector initiative, the KLCC BEA allows us to market the fully-integrated city centre offering and create an all-inclusive proposition for meetings and events from a venue, planner, accommodation and entertainment perspective.”
