Attention, event professionals! Planning an event in Asia can be an exciting adventure, but navigating regional nuances presents unique challenges. Here at Variety Communications, we’ve mastered the art of overcoming these obstacles to deliver seamless and unforgettable experiences.

Common Challenges

A blackboard showing the word 'Hello' being written in various languages including French, German, Portuguese, Italian and many more. — Asia consists of a diverse landscape and a potpourri of languages to navigate through

Language Barriers: Communication is key! We leverage our multilingual team and cultural sensitivity to bridge communication gaps between clients, vendors, and attendees across Asia. For example, our team is fluent in Bahasa Indonesia, Melayu, Chinese (Mandarin and Cantonese), Tamil, and English, allowing us to cater to audiences across Southeast Asia and beyond effectively.

In the middle is placed a series of illustrated business analytics with a magnifying glass, a post it, spectacles, a cup of coffee and a pen at the side. — Distinct business opportunities present themselves from Asia to the rest of the world

Diverse Business Practices: Meeting expectations requires understanding regional business etiquette. We adapt our approach to each project, ensuring a smooth and respectful collaboration. For instance, in South Asian cultures, building rapport and trust is essential before diving into business specifics. In contrast, East Asian cultures often prioritize efficiency and direct communication. We understand these nuances and tailor our communication style accordingly.
