I recently asked ChatGPT for its top-10 of destinations for MICE (this is a sub-sector of tourism dealing with conferences and corporate events), and here what I got:
1. Iceland 2. Morocco 3. Vietnam 4. Costa Rica 5. Peru 6. Croatia / Slovenia 7. New Zealand 8. Thailand 9. Canada 10. Oman
what do you think, does this fit your own idea of where to bring corporate teams for a thrilling experience?
I’m not sure I’d rely on ChatGPT for this task though, as it’s not really data-driven (afaik, ChatGPT is mostly semantically driven, based on what it scraped off the web).
For meeting destinations I’d be looking for these sorts of data points:
a) source destinations + proximity and connectivity b) available conference venues c) accommodation capacity d) experiences etc e) size of meeting (eg conference, or a team retreat) f) type of meeting (eg, workshops, or team building)
Perhaps you can prompt ChatGPT for more specific scenarios and see what it comes up with?
one could reason that ChatGPT, being a semantic model, compiles the list based on some opinions from inside the depths of its knowledge, so that though created mechanically, it could represent some attempt at a consensus of several existing points of view.
another limitation in that regard is that if ChatGPT is using opinions available in 2021, they must represent analyses from some 5 years ago or even further back.
I would certainly agree with you that much depends of a specific type of event, here's what I got for a 40-person team-building:
Barcelona, Spain Bangkok, Thailand Dubai, UAE Queenstown, New Zealand Austin, USA Bali, Indonesia Cape Town, South Africa Vienna, Austria Montreal, Canada Tokyo, Japan
Co-founder of MNE Chapter, CEO, HYVÄ Coaching & Consulting
I second Ian´s suggestions. For European source markets - Finland, Germany, France are definitely missing. And: Croatia & Slovenia are two different countries - both with distinctive strengths - but not the same!
that's an interesting point. though many DMCs serve both Croatia and Slovenia, they definitely provide very different experiences. which may bring us to the question of how broadly we should define destinations to account for diversity - whether it should be cities, provinces, countries or regions
take Spain - it offers Andalusia, Catalonia, old Castile and the Atlantic coast, which are very different settings with very different character
I would say yes to number 10 because I live in Oman! It's a great place for team building because there are so many different kinds of experiences here.
Good evening, am Dorcus Kansiime from Uganda . I think this really a nice top (MICE) especially under the Tourism destination as a topic. Well am so sorry to all of you but allow me write this. I feel so bad and most of the times I regret why I had to study a bachelor’s degree in Tourism and Travel Management. I have looked for jobs everywhere, I can’t find any. My email is also tired I have applied to various companies and organizations even out side my profession, nothing good only regret messages from companies and organizations. I feel so bad , with all my great ideas and vast knowledge in the Tourism sector. I feel so bad, I can’t even explain how bad I feel. Please if there is anyone that knows of any connections that can help me get hired or get a job even if am a volunteer am ready to give my best and share my knowledge with rest of the team. I can do long distance work, I can get access to internet and I will always be of value to any organization or company that takes me up. Please am down for anything, I can always share my CV and academic documents when requested. Thank you very, and lastly I would like to thank the people that put up this platform thanks for doing this amazing work.

Looks like a solid list to me.
