Ovation Global DMC continues its global expansion with the opening of new offices in Hong Kong, Holland and Denmark. The announcement was made today by Ovation Managing Directors, Patrick Delaney and Padraic Gilligan at the meeting and events show IMEX Frankfurt.
Already established in Benelux and Scandinavia with offices in Belgium and Sweden, Ovation is developing its presence in both regions by expanding into two vibrant destinations; Holland and Denmark. The new Ovation office in Hong Kong will serve Hong Kong and Macau.
“Hong Kong has traditionally been a MICE hub in the Asia Pacific region while the MICE sector in neighbouring Macau has gathered momentum in recent years”, commented Michael Chiay, Director of Ovation Hong Kong - Macau. “With world-class infrastructure, a sophisticated services sector and the untiring support of the convention bureaus of Hong Kong (MEHK) and Macau (MBTC), we are delighted to introduce Ovation’s award winning services to our ‘twin’ cities”.
Commenting on the announcement Padraic Gilligan, Managing Director of Ovation Global and Immediate Past President of Site International said ‘’Hong Kong is established as one of the world’s most motivational destinations while Macau is fast emerging as one of the hottest and most intriguing. Successful bids to host the 2009 East Asian Games and the 2010 PATA Travel Mart are testament to the status of Hong Kong and Macau as destinations capable of seamlessly hosting prestigious large scale events’’.
