Reed Exhibitions China is the first organizer who launched this scholarship programme with Beijing International Studies University (BISU) in 2007. The aim of this scholarship is to motivate students and cultivate their commitments to the industry while providing a bridge to link their future careers. The awarded students will not only receive financial assistance and job training during their studies but will also have an opportunity to work with the company after their graduation.

"We will continue to play our part in building greater resources for the exhibition industry in China. BISU is an excellent partner who helps us nurture and develop young talents. I am proud that we are able to bring this programme to the next level and offer it to the outstanding students across China. At Reed, we are committed to our industrial and social responsibilities and welcoming these talents to work with us," said Preecha S. Chen, President of Reed Exhibitions Greater China.

"Reed Exhibitions China is the first company who launched such an initiative and we are pleased with the results. With our joint effort, the scholarship students are able to take part in a variety of trainings and create networks that benefit both career and personal development. We appreciate Reed's commitment to this project," Professor Liu Dake, Chairman of National Society of Event Management Educators added.
