Tourism Promotions Board (TPB) Philippines, the Department of Tourism’s marketing and promotions division, recently kicked off the Philippine M.I.C.E. Conference (MICECON), the country’s leading gathering for meetings, incentive travel, conventions, and exhibitions professionals in Davao City. The three-day event, with the theme “MICEConverge: Blaze New Trails,” aimed to surpass previous MICECON gatherings, drive tourism and economic activities, and highlight Davao City as a preferred MICE destination in the Philippines and Asia.
