As indicated in TAITRA’s press release, the convention and exhibition industry has been developing into globalization and mutual collaboration among international communities.  After signing the MOU, TAITRA and Makuhari Messe will work together to facilitate the development of the convention and exhibition industries around the world by mutually offering privileged rental, joint advertisement and promotion, and exhibition agency.  (March 2015)
