Marina Bay Sands – Hybrid Event Broadcast Studio and Virtual Meeting Place
Marina Bay Sands launched the industry's first Hybrid Broadcast Studio in August 2020 to cater to the demand for hybrid events. Serving as the hub for all virtual and hybrid events hosted at the integrated resort, this high-tech studio is equipped with broadcast-quality live streaming, hologram, Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality and Extended Reality capabilities to create an immersive experience for online and offline audiences.
The Virtual Meeting Place is the newest addition to Marina Bay Sands' ever-improving suite of digital MICE offerings. Launched in October 2021, the Virtual Meeting Place is a fully customisable platform that allows event organisers to scratch-build their virtual venue to replicate real-life event spaces. It was developed in anticipation of the evolution of the industry – from a once-a-year event to an all-year-round client engagement; and to provide a platform for networking, content delivery and as a global marketplace to promote services to a curated customer base.
InterContinental Singapore launched 'The Green Room' in December 2020, a virtual and hybrid event studio equipped with full multimedia production facilities. The Green Room offers two meeting solutions - Virtual Meetings with broadcast-quality live-stream capabilities to deliver real-time connections between clients and guests around the globe; and Hybrid Meetings, ideal for events which can include a live studio audience of up to 30 guests, and unlimited online global attendees.
Event Venues
Following renovations in September 2020 to take full advantage of its unique views, Mount Faber Peak now houses stunning spaces and restaurants and is the perfect spot to host corporate events. Various customisable spaces can host 30-260 people, including The Ballroom, Private Dining Room and Arbora Hilltop Garden and Bistro.
A new ultimate business event venue set to open in 2022, Southside at Siloso will provide an array of flexible event spaces located along the water's edge. The venue is set to comprise three ballrooms, each complete with plug-and-play adaptations – perfect for hosting seminars, conventions and indoor exhibitions.
Experiences
Skip the attractions and find Singapore's hidden treasures with the Everyday Tour Company. A range of different walking tours and experiences are available, with highly knowledgeable tour guides to provide insight into Singaporean culture and heritage. Signature tours include Everyday Architecture, Singaporean Street Art and even an Everyday Secret's Tour, which explores Singapore's public housing. Customised tours on offer include private food tours, shophouse tours and a trip around Pulau Ubin.
Designed to allow colleagues to connect in a meaningful, and engaging environment, Dignity Outreach provides corporate team bonding experiences alongside the elderly and disabled community. These include 'Hawker For A Day' – which takes everyone to famous Hawker stalls where they work together to cook and serve the elderly, while the 'Working With Disability' module offers the chance to develop the team's skill set to be more inclusive of differently abled people.
Aiming to provide visitors with hands-on tours of Singapore, Tribe Tours are curated by locals who know the city inside out. Rather than experiencing Singapore as a passive tourist, Tribe Tours engage their guests with interactive experiences such as cooking local dishes, snapping pictures of local architecture, tastings, and even teaches guests how to order food like a local. Tribe Tours are kept private, small and intimate to facilitate interaction.
Mount Faber may be one of Singapore's oldest parks, but Gai Gai Tours have launched a two-hour walking adventure that will showcase Mount Faber in a new light. The tour begins with a cable car ride to the peak of the hill where guests will then embark on a fully guided tour around the hill's lesser-known heritage hotspots including the Mural Wall and Poland's Bells of Happiness.
