FUNDING FOR GRABS AS SYDNEY MEETINGS FUND EXTENDS IN INDIA
Understanding the cost pressures on event planners across the region, Sydney’s
specialist bidding expert Business Events Sydney has announced new funding is
available for travel agents and meeting planners in India.
Applications to the new Sydney Meetings Fund (SMF) are open for a limited time and can
be used to cover/offset an event’s on-the-ground expenses in Sydney.
Designed for smaller (75-250 person) corporate and incentive events, the funding
support is accessible through BESydney’s website here.

“Since the BESydney SMF opened, we have seen a number of event owners and
organisers register and qualify for financial support for events in 2025. Sydney is the top
market in Australia for India, and we look forward to welcoming corporate meetings and
incentives from India. From feedback received following our 2023 India famil to Sydney
we know delegates love the natural beauty and wildlife in Sydney as well as the
adventure, sporting experiences and culinary offerings”, said BESydney Executive
General Manager Client Engagement, Kristian Nicholls.
The independent and not-for-profit BESydney is also making it easier to book Sydney
with planning tools, supplier connections and their experts’ best tips on the latest hot
new experiences, hotels and attractions to surprise, delight and inspire delegates.
Planners with events larger than 250 delegates can also contact BESydney directly via
this site.
“We cannot wait to share Sydney’s fresh new story with agents and clients who will be
inspired by the new luxury hotel landscape, exciting new attractions and experiences,
not to mention the unique venues from super yachts to exclusive islands. Sydney has
changed dramatically in recent years, and we look forward to sharing the city’s fresh
energy and evolving landscape,” said Nicholls.
