Singapore Expo & Max Atria has had its first in-person Mice (meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions) event since the space was repurposed as a community care facility during the Covid-19 pandemic.

The opening ceremony of the third Industrial Transformation Asia-Pacific (ITAP) event, the region’s go-to platform for exploring Industry 4.0 solutions, was a hybrid one yesterday.

A small group of 100 attendees sat 1m apart from one another, while some 5,000 other participants from 50 countries watched the event online.
