Familiarization trips

In August 2017, TCVB conducted a familiarization trip for Asian meeting planners. Tour participants visited hotels, learned about the environmental initiatives of Fuji Television and the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, explored unique venues, and enjoyed cultural experiences. TCVB shared the charms of the Tokyo Waterfront with meeting planners, showcasing it as a new potential MICE destination. The tour was also an effort to increase the area's presence as a MICE resort in Tokyo, with the whole Waterfront coming together to promote its MICE features.
