We are seeking the most inspiring photo that would make meeting and event planners want to come and hold their next business event in Thailand.”

Three first-place winners will be chosen in each category (Culture, Attraction, and Lifestyle), each with a cash prize of 15,000 THB each plus a hotel voucher valued at 15,000 THB. Awards are limited to one prize per entrant.

A panel comprised of 70 percent TCEB representatives will judge the images on a range of factors; 30 percent will be based on the voting that each participant achieves.

The winning photos will be announced on www.BusinessEventsThailand.com and/or www.facebook.com/businesseventsthailand.com on November 15, 2013.
