Reed Exhibitions Greater China Supports Bright, Young Minds in China’s Exhibition Industry

January 9, 2017

Reed Exhibitions Greater China continues its contribution to the future of the nation’s exhibition industry with the ninth annual edition of The Reed Exhibitions Greater China Scholarship Program.

The Reed Exhibitions Greater China Scholarship Program award ceremony recently was held Dec. 13 at Beijing International Studies University (BISU).

The Reed Exhibitions Greater China Scholarship Program was created to attract and motivate outstanding young talents who endeavor to serve China’s MICE trade through the exhibition industry. 

It is one of many ways in which the company, as the world’s largest event organizers, demonstrates leadership and good corporate citizenship as it continues its role in building greater resources for China’s exhibition industry.

The program originated with a three-year-cooperation with the Exhibition Management Department of Beijing International Studies University (BISU) in 2007. 

The 2016 award applicants boasted a significant increase from recent years with 26 participating schools and 249 students. The overall 38 prizes line-up totalled to RMB135, 000.

A surge in participant numbers demonstrates a promising trend among China’s young professionals in the nation’s rapidly expanding exhibitions industry. 

Today’s young talents increasingly recognize Reed’s potential for development amid an exceptional working environment.

The company’s reputation as a top employer is undoubtedly a factor as well. Reed Exhibitions Greater China recently received the Best Employer honor for its third consecutive year, followed by The Best Performance Management Company Award in 2015, and its listing among Beijing’s Top 30 Employers in 2014.

HERE, hosting responsible meetings and caring for our communities are top priorities. Through its 'Focused on What Matters: Embracing Humanity and Protecting the Planet' philosophy, MGM Resorts commits to creating a more sustainable future, while striving to make an impact in the lives of employees, guests, and the communities in which it operates. Water Stewardship Efforts MGM Resorts understands the importance of using water efficiently, especially in the desert destination of Las Vegas. Conserving water has always been part of the mission, but MGM Resorts has expanded its ambition into water stewardship. In 2022, MGM Resorts President and CEO Bill Hornbuckle signed the CEO Water Mandate—a UN Global Compact initiative mobilizing business leaders to advance water stewardship. MGM Resorts International was the first gaming company to take this important step. MGM Resorts replaced 200,000 square feet of real grass with drought-tolerant landscaping in Las Vegas. MGM Resorts pledges to reduce water withdrawal intensity by 33% by 2025 and by 35% by 2030. From 2007-2021, use of more than 5.6 billion gallons of water was avoided because of conservation efforts. Caring for One Another MGM Resorts’ Food Donations Program collects and preserves unserved food from conventions held at MGM Resorts properties, then safely donates to food insecure people in the community. Since the program’s launch in 2016, more than 3.7 million meals toward a 2025 goal of 5 million meals have been donated into the community. Donations include: Unserved perishable prepared foods from events Perishable unprepared food from MGM Resorts’ kitchens Nonperishable food items from minibars and warehouses The collaboration with Southern Nevada’s primary food bank, Three Square, has developed the infrastructure needed to safely collect, transport, and store food from MGM Resorts properties in Las Vegas, reducing food waste while serving the community.
