Abstract

The Meetings, Incentives, Conventions and Exhibitions (MICE) sector of tourism is rapidly expanding worldwide. This paper discusses some neglected issues relating to the assessment of the narrower economic impacts, the economy-wide impacts and the net benefits of an expanding MICE sector within a tourism destination. The paper does not attempt to provide estimates of impacts or net national benefits as such, bur attempts to enhance our understanding of issues important to the subsequent task of assessment and thus to more informed policy making in this area.
