MIX closes out 2018 and begins its 12th Anniversary year by looking at a region set to deliver more for conference and event planners: the Mekong. We bring you the latest on Danang, in Central Vietnam, and the amazing Cambodian icon of Angkor Wat, in Siem Reap. Our Spotlight feature tackles the challenges facing trade show competing in the business events and travel space, while our Examine case studies feature the Paralympic Games in Jakarta and a Lexus launch in Shanghai. In Eventist we meet a young entrepreneur who is on a quest to introduce blockchain to event organisers. All this and more including a review of 2018 in The Trend.
