Our winning experience
At Business Events Sydney (BESydney), we understand what it takes to win and host highly successful and memorable incentive events. We have been doing this for decades, and our experience has helped make Sydney one of the most popular destinations in the world.
Sydney continues to be the Australian city of choice for major events, incentives and conferences and was ranked as the most popular city for meetings in the southern hemisphere by the International Congress and Conference Association in 2008.
Sydney has recently played host to the following international incentive events:
- Far Glory Life Insurance, Taiwan
- Fortis Insurance, Hong Kong
- Sunlife, Hong Kong
- Bayer Schering Pharmaceutical, Beijing
- Woori Bank, Korea
- ING Life Insurance, Korea
- Herbalife, Taiwan
- Nanfang Lee Kum Kee, China
- AIG Presidents Regional Conference, Asia
- AIA, China
- Shanghai Roche Pharmaceuticals, China
Sydney’s popularity as an incentive destination is hardly surprising: it is one of the world’s greatest cities, and its impressive natural setting, world famous attractions and friendly locals deliver world-class experiences. In fact, Sydney is:
- Affordable: comparatively better value than New York, Paris, London and Hong Kong
- Accessible: more airlines and flights arrive in Sydney each week than any other Australian city, and the airport is only 25 minutes from the city
- Purpose built: sophisticated infrastructure and venues are among the best in the world
- Authentic: a truly authentic Australian experience with a cosmopolitan outlook
- Easy: proximity to Asia means minimal (if any) jetlag
- Enjoyable: temperate climate, with the full sun shining on average seven hours a day
- Natural: many parks, green spaces and coastlines create a clean, beautiful setting
- Expert: high profile Sydney events like ‘best ever’ 2000 Olympic Games and 2008 World Youth Day demonstrate Sydney’s expertise at delivering successful events
