Southeast Asia’s Biggest B2B Hospitality Event Fuels Growth in Indonesia’s Key Cities
INDONESIA; JAKARTA August 26, 2024 — MG Group, Southeast Asia’s premier B2B hospitality provider, proudly wrapped up its highly anticipated MG Connect 2024 event series, driving significant growth for hotels and travel buyers across Indonesia. The event, which is recognized as the largest B2B hospitality gathering in Southeast Asia, took place in three strategic cities: Jakarta in January, Medan in April, and Surabaya in August.
MG Connect 2024 successfully brought together over 300 to 400 hoteliers and frontline travel buyers from across the region, creating an unparalleled platform for networking, knowledge sharing, and business development. The B2B channel has become one of the most profitable avenues in the hospitality industry, and MG Connect has consistently provided a valuable opportunity for hoteliers to expand their B2B distribution and forge new partnerships.
A unique feature of the event was its innovative "speed-dating" format, designed to foster direct connections between travel buyers and participating hotels. During these sessions, hoteliers had the opportunity to educate frontline buyers on the unique offerings of their properties while building strong B2B relationships crucial for future growth.
The event concluded with a cocktail and dinner reception, offering attendees a relaxed environment to continue discussions and further strengthen their relationships. The success of MG Connect 2024 underscores the event’s vital role in empowering the hospitality sector and supporting the growth of B2B channels across Southeast Asia.
Brett Henry, President Director at MG Group, remarked, “MG is all about Growth, and this was reflected in MG Connect events throughout the year in Indonesia's cities. I am especially thrilled by the mix of senior industry leaders and young professionals who took part in MG Connects in Jakarta, Medan & Surabaya this year. And the fact that professionals from all South East Asia have come together to promote our industry as a whole, clearly shows what we as an industry can achieve together.”
MG Group is excited to announce that preparations are already underway for the MG Connect event in 2025, promising even greater opportunities for collaboration and growth within the industry.
