Sands Resorts Macao’s The Venetian Macao and The Parisian Macao have become the first Healthcare Meeting Compliance Certificate Verified Venues (HMCC-VV) in Macao, accredited by Meeting Professionals International (MPI).

Medical meetings’ criteria differ greatly from other industry meetings due to the unique regulatory practices of each country. The HMCC is awarded only to venues that meet the complex planning and operational standards mandated by international healthcare and life-science meeting event organisers, and the accreditation has endorsed Sands Resorts Macao’s leading position in the region for hosting healthcare and life-science meetings.

Stephanie Tanpure, VP of sales of Sands China, said, “Sands Resorts Macao has a long and successful history of hosting impactful meetings in the medical sector, with a total of 163 events held for international clients since 2016. This remarkable achievement reflects our commitment to excellence and highlights our next-level facilities and services. It also encourages us to continuously excel as a leading healthcare meeting provider while continuing to fulfil the rigorous event requirements of our clients in this sector.”

The HMCC-VV programme provides an overview of healthcare compliance rules and trends and ensures accredited venues navigate pharmaceutical, biotech, and medical device regulatory environments. It assesses venues based on 11 individual standards, such as compliance with global medical meeting laws and regulations, data privacy plans, reporting procedures, and experience with healthcare meetings.

The integrated resort offers versatile meeting and event spaces, live entertainment venues, world-class accommodation, entertainment and leisure options, shopping experiences, and dining options. It strives to be a one-stop-shop with flexibility and convenience.
