• Access a dynamic and fast growing source of international students
• Two days of business meetings and social networking opportunities
Connect with Agents from the Southeast Asian Market
The ICEF Southeast Asia Workshop provides international educators
and service providers with the opportunity to meet quality student
recruitment agents from Southeast Asia.
This event takes place in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam and will offer
participants an opportunity to meet selected agents from Vietnam,
Thailand, Malaysia, Philippines, Indonesia, Cambodia, and Southern
China.
The inaugural ICEF Southeast Asia Workshop is a highly anticipated
event and is expected to sell out quickly. Do not miss this dynamic
networking opportunity in this important and growing study abroad
market.
Agents attending the workshop are carefully selected and have passed
the strict ICEF screening process, providing references from past
business partners, as well as proof of ethical business practice and
success in sending students to institutions around the world.
The workshop provides an excellent, focussed platform for educators and
service providers to pre-schedule face-to-face meetings with agents to
make new connections, as well as consolidate existing partnerships.
In addition to formal business meetings, networking opportunities at lunch
times, coffee breaks and evening functions allow participants to develop
the more social aspects of their business relationships.
The Venue
The ICEF Southeast Asia Workshop will take place at the InterContinental
Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City).

City only a short walk away from the city’s most famous landmarks like the

Workshop Programme
Comments from past ICEF Events
The event enables educators to hold up tp 38 pre-scheduled
one-to-one business meetings with relevant, quality
student recruitment agents from Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia,
Philippines, Indonesia, Cambodia, and Southern China. These
appointments are 30 minutes in duration and serve the dual
objectives of meeting with new contacts and/or maintaining
existing relationships. The workshop programme also includes
meals, refreshment breaks and a dinner function.
At the event I had a full schedule of agent meetings. Onsite many more agents
stopped by to ask if I had any spare time to meet with them – they all were very
interested in our programmes.

Roadshow
I was very impressed by the organisation of the event and how well prepared the
agents were. They had definitely done background research before our meetings.

Roadshow
The ICEF Beijing Workshop was extremely useful. I was able to make lots of good
contacts which will materialise into new business for our college. The event was
extremely well organised and the support from ICEF was unsurpassable.
David Ranson, Franklin College, UK, ICEF Beijing Workshop
I was impressed with the high quality of the agents and the maturity of the
conversations we had. There will definitely be some new partnerships as a result.
