MGM SME Business Matching Session

At the business matching session today, focus was placed on cultivating three key local SME segments: “Micro SMEs”, “Made in Macau” and “Young Entrepreneurs”. The business matching session had an overwhelming response as it has attracted over 319 local SMEs. Each SME merchant was provided a meeting with an MGM representative from the corresponding department to ensure a productive business matching opportunity.

Committed to “Creating a Better Macau Today” and fulfilling its corporate social responsibility, MGM China has consistently supported the Macau SME community with over 80% of its procurement spend going to local Macau businesses in 2014. To ensure further progress and longevity of this program, MGM China will host quarterly matching activities to develop sector specific relationships and focus on near-term opportunities.

MGM SME Committee

MGM China is leading the industry on the important initiative of focusing on SMEs by creating the MGM SME Committee, which comprises of local business leaders, academics and management team members of MGM China, with the objective to build a platform for the development of local SMEs, and to enhance business relationships for future opportunities.

Mr. Grant Bowie, Chief Executive Officer and Executive Director of MGM China Holdings Limited also MGM SME Committee member, said, “As a Macau based corporation, MGM is committed to supporting local SMEs by cultivating existing and new business relationships. We are pleased with the tremendous response at today’s business matching session and are looking forward to developing new business opportunities with many of the SMEs who joined us today, as well as exchanging valuable ideas with our MGM SME Committee members. The impact of our efforts today will become more substantial as our Committee continues to develop SME-centric initiatives. We are confident that we can build Macau’s economy together.”

Mr. Chui Yuk Lum, Vice-President of the MCC, said, “MGM China has done a lot of work in recent years to promote tourism, arts and cultural aspects in line with the Government’s efforts to create diversification in Macau’s economy. With the establishment of MGM SME Committee, the MCC will certainly fulfill the duties as one of the members, and strive to strengthen business cooperation between MGM China and local SMEs.”
