The Malaysia International Trade and Exhibition Centre (MITEC) has achieved a significant milestone by winning two prestigious awards at the 2025 World Travel Awards and World MICE Awards.
Recognised as the "World’s Leading Meetings & Conference Centre 2025" and "Malaysia’s Best Convention Centre 2025," these accolades were presented at the Grand Final Gala Ceremony in Bahrain on 6 December.
The awards highlight MITEC's pivotal role in promoting Malaysia's trade, tourism, and international connectivity.
A stellar year
MITEC, Malaysia's largest convention and exhibition facility, hosted over 650 events in 2025, attracting more than 5.5 million visitors. This activity has generated substantial economic benefits across various sectors, including tourism, logistics, and the gig economy.
The centre has also been a key venue for high-profile events such as the ASEAN Economic Ministers’ Meeting and the ASEAN Business Advisory Council Summit.
As a MATRADE-owned venue managed by Qube Integrated Malaysia, MITEC is strategically positioned to support national trade objectives.
Dato’ Sri Mohd Mustafa Abdul Aziz, CEO of MATRADE, stated: “These global accolades are a testament to MITEC’s excellence and its commitment to driving Malaysia’s global competitiveness in the MICE sector.”
Looking towards the future, MITEC aims to lead global MICE trends by integrating advanced digital infrastructure and expanding its sustainability initiatives.
This aligns with the Visit Malaysia 2026 campaign, which focuses on high-yield tourism and sustainable development. MITEC's efforts are set to further establish Kuala Lumpur as a premier destination for world-class business events.
