A new programme, the Ignite Sydney Business Event Fund, has been launched in India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam, specifically for corporate meetings, incentives and conferences held in Greater Sydney in 2023.
The funding will offset costs for events with 200 to 400 delegates, whereby the client will receive support to the value of A$40 (US$26) per person. For events with a group size of over 401 delegates, it will be deferred to a customised funding offer. Applications will be assessed on a first-come-first-served basis.
“BESydney’s Ignite Sydney Business Event Fund is an exciting initiative, to stimulate a return to hosting incredible corporate events and incentives in our harbour city,” said BESydney CEO, Lyn Lewis-Smith.
“We want to support our important meeting planners and encourage the return of our Asian incentive and corporate market to Sydney to experience the vibrancy and energy of the city, as well as our new products, attractions and venues.”
Applications are now open, and will close on November 18, 2022, or earlier if funds have been allocated.
