Targeting MICE buyers & planners in China? CEI Asia can help you reach them!
CEI features a Chinese-language section in every issue, enabling us to engage and communicate
with our subscribers in China in the best and most immediate way possible—in their own language.
This section, which appears at the front of the book, is written in Simplified Chinese, the script of
choice across the booming China market. This section consists of a minimum of 16 pages per issue,
and covers our most-read articles, including Opinion, Analysis, Case Studies, Cover Stories and
Destination Features.
Our Chinese section is distributed to all Chinese-reading subscribers, which consists of more than
5,000 MICE buyers and planners of business events, covering major cities such as Beijing and
Shanghai, and Guangzhou Province.
In addition, Chinese-language business events platform, EventRen, recently joined Haymarket
Media’s portfolio of leading brands. Dedicated to event and meeting professionals across Greater
China, EventRen in partnership with us can help you effectively reach decision makers in the
booming China market.
By advertising with CEI within the Chinese-language section, you too can communicate directly with
a captivated, engaged audience.
