About “Asia Super Team”
In 2014, MEET TAIWAN launched Asia Super Team, a contest for businesses in Asia as an effort of experience marketing to promote Taiwan as an ideal destination for meetings, incentives, conventions, and exhibitions (MICE).
In 2014 Asia Super Team final in Taiwan (https://goo.gl/7cmNhq), four participants from each finalist company took the five-day-four-night competition, where their creativity and team morale were highly aroused by a series of team-bonding challenges including aboriginal hunter training in an indigenous tribe in Leshui, performing a drum session with Grammy nominee Ten Drum Art Percussion Group at the Ten Drum Ciaotou Creative Park in Kaohsiung, and singing popular Taiwanese songs on board Taiwan’s parade floats. The finalist business participants experienced the diversity and vitality of Taiwan incentive travel with an exciting and fun vibe.
The 2015 Asia Super Team combines team building activities with corporate social responsibilities and philanthropic causes to promote a more meaningful incentive travel experience, expand people’s imagination about incentive travel in Taiwan, as well as encourage more enterprise’s consideration of Taiwan as a preferred destination for MICE activities.
