The award ceremony, the Macao Convention and Exhibition Commendation Awards is scheduled to take place on December 12.
“It is such an honor to once again receive the Brand Exhibition Award,” said Josephine Lee, Chief Operating Officer of Reed Exhibitions Greater China. “G2E Asia has built a solid bridge between Macau and the world to promote local industry capabilities and economic development. As G2E Asia steps firmly into its second decade, being recognized for our contributions to Macau and the industry is quite an inspiration to all of us. We are extremely grateful to MCEA. This honor will serve as a driving force to ensure that our teams deliver even better and more professional editions that will fully meet the needs and exceed the expectations of the industry.”
