Rich in resources, Asia is now a major global participant in the areas of economic, trade and tourism development, and this has seen a corresponding surge in the staging of events- economic forums, trade shows, product launches or tourism events. Conceptualised and written by tourism consultant and researcher Glenn McCartney for undergraduate tourism and hospitality students as well as for event practitioners, Event Management: An Asian Perspective explores the development, range, objectives and issues of business and leisure events and event planning in Asia. |
