SHANGHAI, Dec. 20, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- 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 was recently held on December 13, 2016 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 leading event organizer, 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.
Reed Exhibitions Greater China President Hu Wei notes, "At Reed, personal development is the cornerstone of our values because we know that success depends on our employees. We recognize that only by having the best talent can business priorities be achieved. That's why Reed continually and tirelessly invests in its workforce, both current and future. Our annual scholarship awards are a prime example of our company's ongoing investment in the future."
