Bangkok, Thailand, July 13, 2025 / TRAVELINDEX / The Pacific Asia Travel Association (PATA), in collaboration with PATA’s Premier Partner Visa, will host a capacity-building training in Beijing, China this week to support small and medium-sized travel and tourism enterprises (SMEs). This workshop aims to equip businesses with practical knowledge to improve their digital visibility, enhance their international payment readiness, and better serve inbound travellers.

This marks the first time the Association brings its SME capacity-building programme to China, continuing a long-standing collaboration with Visa. Since 2023, similar workshops – focused on providing necessary practical business digitalisation and financial management skills for tourism SMEs – have been held in Cambodia, Vietnam, Indonesia, and the Philippines. The latest edition of the programme will build on this foundation, while tailoring the content to the unique opportunities and challenges facing Chinese tourism businesses today.

While China leads the world in mobile payment adoption and digital innovation, many international travellers still encounter difficulties when trying to pay using their foreign-issued cards. This particular training will introduce accessible, secure, and visitor-friendly payment solutions to help close this gap and provide a more seamless travel experience that benefits both the travellers and travel businesses.

Moreover, by covering key inbound tourism data and spending insights, the programme is set to help SMEs better understand the preferences and behaviours of international travellers. Participants will further gain actionable strategies in digital marketing to strengthen their competitiveness in both domestic and global markets.

“The Association has always strived to support the recovery and long-term resilience of tourism SMEs. With Visa, who has been our partner on this journey from the start, we are delighted to bring this training to China for the very first time,” said PATA CEO Noor Ahmad Hamid. “Through the in-depth training sessions we have put together for this occasion, local businesses will be empowered with the tools required to enhance the digital transformation of their operations and become well-positioned to attract international travelers.”

Along with the support of Visa, the training is made possible through collaboration with local and regional partners, including, the China Tourism Association, the China Tourism Academy, the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Culture and Tourism, the World Tourism Cities Federation Committee of Tourism-Related Business, the Beijing Culture and Tourism Association, and Dragon Trail International.

Xiaolong Yin, Vice President and General Manager of Visa Mainland China, said, “We are honored to partner with PATA to host this training. This is another initiative following the launch of the Visa-CUP Zone for Beijing Central Axis in March this year, which enables Beijing as ‘China’s Top Destination for Inbound Tourism’. This is also part of Visa’s 20-city tourism SMBs empowerment campaign. To help SMBs seize the business opportunities brought by the booming inbound tourism, Visa actively introduces innovative and low-cost payment solutions that align with the payment habits of foreign tourists, such as scan-to-pay and tap-to-pay, helping small businesses improve operational efficiency and reduce costs.”

The training will welcome participants from across the tourism sector, including accommodation providers, travel agencies, tour operators, restaurants, and attractions.

Held at the Granada Conference Centre and supported by the Andalusian Tourism Board as the main sponsor, alongside Granada Convention Bureau and Junta de Andalucía, the event marked a milestone for both ICCA and the Andalusia region.

A Future-Forward Vision for Sustainability

The Forum opened with a panel discussion exploring the present and future of sustainability. Participants explored the challenges and opportunities facing the industry, emphasizing that real transformation requires a shared effort. The concept of “When you want to go fast, you go alone. When you want to go far, you go together,” became a key theme that guided the discussion.

The Ignite Sessions showcased how associations are taking tangible steps toward sustainable operations, including promoting public transport and community engagement and introducing inclusive practices such as onsite childcare and accessible gala dinners. Delegates also took part in Collaboration Labs to co-create actionable sustainability strategies while voicing their needs and priorities. ICCA will integrate these insights into its evolving Sustainability Action Plan, reinforcing its commitment to member-driven progress.

The final day featured the launch of ICCA’s Food Waste Toolkit for Associations during a hands-on session on reducing food waste. This toolkit provides associations with practical tools to reduce environmental impact while promoting more conscious event catering.

Granada as a Model Destination for Sustainable Events

The forum concluded with a cultural evening, including a private guided tour of the Alhambra, celebrating the region’s rich heritage. Beyond its historical allure, Granada showcased its capacity as a leading MICE destination dedicated to sustainable growth, inclusivity, and global collaboration.

ICCA Head of Association Engagement Dermot Ryan said: “Only by working together can we create more sustainable meetings. This spirit of partnership was at the heart of the Global Association Forum 2025 in Granada, with international associations and ICCA Members learning together, sharing experiences and insights, and crucially, building relationships to enhance future collaboration around sustainable meetings.”

A report with learnings, outcomes and recommendations will be shared in the coming month. ICCA extends its thanks to all partners, speakers, and attendees who made the Global Association Forum 2025 a catalyst for a more sustainable, inclusive, and impactful future.

Bangkok, Thailand, July 13, 2025 / TRAVELINDEX / On the Auspicious Occasion of His Majesty the King’s birthday 28th July 2025, the Royal Bangkok Symphony Orchestra in collaboration with Department of Cultural Promotion, Ministry of Culture and with support of the Embassy of the Netherlands, British Council and B. Grimm, presents a memorable evening of music and dance on the 17th of July 2025 at 7:30 pm at the Thailand Cultural Centre, Main Hall.

Every 15 minutes, someone somewhere in the world plays Ravel’s Bolero – it’s a legacy its artist could never have imagined.

Under the direction of returning Dutch conductor Sander Teepen, the concert opens with Giuseppe Verdi’s stirring Nabucco Overture, a dramatic and triumphant work that sets the tone for the night. The first half continues with one of the most beloved works in the cello repertoire — Edward Elgar’s Cello Concerto in E minor, Op. 85, The Cello Concerto was Sir Edward Elgar’s last major work, composed in 1919, after the end of World War I. The atmosphere of the piece reflects the loss, sadness, and fragility of the human mind, but at the same time, it also contains profound beauty and a spark of hope. It will be performed by the distinguished Cellist Johan van Iersel, assistant principal cellist of the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra since September 1997.

The second half of the programme shifts to the world of myth and movement, beginning with Igor Stravinsky’s spellbinding Firebird Suite (1919 version), a vivid and colorful orchestral work rooted in Russian folklore. The evening concludes with a special highlight: Bangkok City Ballet warmly invites you to experience a powerful contemporary performance, “BOLÉRO: Music and Dance Performance”, a unique collaboration uniting artist from PCK Dance (UK), Bangkok City Ballet, and the Royal Bangkok Symphony Orchestra. This performance reimagines Maurice Ravel’s iconic classical composition Boléro through a contemporary lens, featuring choreography by James Pett and Travis Clausen-Knight of PCK Dance. Both choreographers will also perform on stage alongside professional dancers from Bangkok City Ballet, accompanied by a full live orchestra led by the RBSO. Don’t miss this extraordinary fusion of powerful music and expressive movement — a contemporary performance that celebrates artistic excellence and international creativity.
