Spameeting ME sees a new launch

Dubai is one of the world’s fastest developing centres for its trade and business relationships and ease of connecting features, hence SPAMEETING’s decision to host its 14th edition in the booming city. “We give high priority to the place where our clients can network and meet regional directors and CEOs”

Spameeting Middle East is a corporate platform created for leading hotel and spa chains, enabling them to exclusively reveal their pre-opening projects and expansion plans to a wide range of key suppliers attending the event in Dubai.

The 14th edition of the event will see the launch of The Conference Programme on 6th December 2015,  a move designed to allow spa professionals from the region to benefit from learning about new trends in spa operations amongst a chain of hotels such as Rotana, Bulgari, Kempinski, Six Senses and Danubius. Discussed will be the concept of transforming an initial prospect to that of a fully-fledged business partnership.

Buyers attending this year will be mainly from Europe and the Middle East, with a special focus on the developing markets and project holders from Turkey and the Central Asian ‘stan countries. 

Spameeting has a good relationship with a number of groups in the area, allowing potential project holders to network with leading suppliers during a series of specially arranged one-to-one private appointments. Such meetings have been found to be a very intensive and efficient use of  time to maximise business opportunities.

Professionals from luxurious hotel and spa chains such as Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts, Fairmont Hotels and Resorts, Starwood Hotels and Resorts, Accor Hotels, Hilton Worldwide, Mandarin Oriental Hotels, Kempinski Hotels, Jumeirah Group, Hyatt Hotels, Marriott International, Rotana Hotels, Ritz-Carlton and Lux* Resorts, plus leading spa operators including MSpa International, Mandara Spa, Raison d’Etre, Resense Spas, WTS International and RLA, all attend Spameeting to source innovative brands and equipment. 

Similarly, hospitality groups and investors like Emaar, Amlak, Damac Properties and others benefit from the Spameeting platform to find partners for their business expansion plans and the beginning of new concepts as part of their business portfolio.

Distributors joining among the key regions of Europe and Middle East play a major role in developing the brands within their geographical zones of operation.

Regional decision makers like Akram Al Kawasmeh and Aiobheann Bonner, directors of the Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts Group and the Rotana Hotels Group respectively, will be sharing their extensive experience with the conference launch on 6th December in Dubai.

Among the distributors, Abu Dhabi-based Beauty Leaders - which has attended Spameeting events in the past - has created several partnerships with suppliers, providing a motive for CEO, Mr Khader Kaabar to rejoin Spameeting to seek innovative products for distribution this year.

Buyers joining Spameeting hold the right of direct decisions and negotiations with individual suppliers to potentially seek a partnership on their upcoming projects or expansion plans.Positive feedback from Andrew Gibson of Fairmont Hotels and Resorts; Paul Hawco from Jumeirah Group; and Akram Al Kawasmeh of  Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts shows Spameeting to be a perfect platform to conclude and refresh both past and pending partnerships.
