MGS show buyers subsidy deadline next week

The MGS Entertainment show is approaching its deadline for the Qualified Buyers programme for the 2016 expo, which provides up to MOP7,000 (US$876) in travel and accommodation sponsorship for registered buyers. Those wishing to sign up for the scheme must do so by next week, a group spokesperson told Business Daily, explaining that in previous years the group had also applied the same Qualified Buyers programme but, due to insufficient demand, it wasn’t always put forward.
The organiser expects around 10,000 visitors to this year’s event, to be held November 15 to 17, and this year’s partnership with the local government brings about a new segment for the expo – the Culture Zone – introducing elements of local culture to international visitors. Another new addition to this year’s show is the Technology and Innovation sector dedicatedto online gaming, software developers, payment gateways and other tech-related offerings.
