To alleviate cost pressures, Business Events Sydney (BESydney) has announced the availability of new funding for travel agents and meeting planners in India and South-east Asia.
Applications to the new Sydney Meetings Fund (SMF) are open for a limited time and can be used to cover/offset an event’s on-the-ground expenses in Sydney.
Designed for smaller (100 to 250 pax) corporate and incentive events, the funding support is accessible through BESydney’s website. Planners with events larger than 250 delegates can also contact BESydney directly via this site.
“Since the BESydney SMF opened, we have seen a number of event owners and organisers register and qualify for financial support for events in 2024. Sydney is the top market in Australia for India, and we look forward to welcoming corporate meetings and incentives from India and South-east Asia. From feedback received following our 2023 India fam to Sydney we know delegates love the natural beauty and wildlife in Sydney, as well as the adventure, sporting experiences and culinary offerings,” said BESydney’s executive general manager client engagement, Kristian Nicholls.
BESydney also offers planning tools, supplier connections and experts tips on the latest hot new experiences, hotels and attractions to surprise, delight and inspire delegates.
