As the largest convention center operator in the country, it’s strategically placed in key cities for maximum convenience and commutability. An SMX center is always nearby, and ready with a versatile space to accommodate events of any scale. MICE stands for Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions.

Across Manila, Cebu, Davao, and beyond, these centers host an exciting variety of international conferences and exhibitions, attracting visitors from all over the world. Since the pandemic, the business and exhibitions industry has seen a steady, promising improvement. This has driven visitors to the Philippines in droves, and the country aims to rival Malaysia, driving more visitors by the year and marketing itself as a hub for pivotal events such as the ASEAN summit. Foreign tourists spend an average of P29,694 (£397.92) when they attend conventions and exhibitions, culminating in a huge boost to the industry within the Philippines, and SMX Convention Center takes pride in its place at the forefront.
