In order to send messages in and out Japan about the advantages of holding a MICE in Okinawa, OCVB participated in various make-a-business gatherings and exhibitions. Also they held seminors regarding MICE Okinawa as well as publicized the event to invite participants by taking advantage of the MIC-related media. Such activities included 5 make-a-business gatherings/exhibitions and business negotiations with 100 companies in total, through all of which OCVB tried to publicize Okinawa, which is the venue of the expected MICE.
OCVB attributed the most-in-history achievement to "the result of our active invitation efforts in various manners."
