Prachoom Tantiprasertsuk, Vice President – Operations (Central & Southern Thailand) and Government & Business Relations at Dusit International, and President of the Thailand Incentive and Convention Association (TICA), has received the prestigious Thailand Meetings Leadership Award at the inaugural Thailand MICE Legacy Awards 2026, organised by the Thailand Convention and Exhibition Bureau (TCEB).
Presented during MICE Day 2026 at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center in Bangkok on April 29, 2026, the award recognises individuals who have played a significant role in advancing Thailand’s meetings sector and strengthening the country’s position as a leading international MICE destination.
Tantiprasertsuk was recognised for her contribution to Thailand’s MICE sector over more than three decades, including her long-standing role in supporting industry collaboration, strengthening Thailand’s international profile, and helping drive the development of TICA, where she has been involved since its early years and currently serves as President for the 2025–2026 term.
Drawing on extensive experience in the international hospitality industry, she has played an active role in supporting the growth of Thailand’s meetings sector and the continued evolution of TICA as a leading professional organisation within the country’s business events landscape.
While the recognition honours individual achievement, it also reflects the increasingly important role hospitality leaders play in supporting the broader advancement of Thailand’s tourism and business events ecosystem through collaboration, mentorship, and long-term industry engagement.
“This recognition is deeply meaningful because it reflects the collective efforts of so many people who have helped shape Thailand’s MICE sector over many years,” said Tantiprasertsuk. “I’ve been fortunate to work alongside dedicated colleagues and partners across hospitality, tourism, government, and business events, all of whom share the same goal of strengthening Thailand’s position on the global stage. This commitment is also closely aligned with Dusit’s long-standing vision and values.”
Commenting on the recognition, Chanin Donavanik, Group CEO and Acting Chairman, Board of Directors, Dusit International, who has long supported the advancement of Thailand’s tourism and hospitality industry through leadership and industry engagement beyond Dusit International, said: “Thailand’s tourism and MICE sectors have always progressed through strong collaboration between passionate individuals across both the public and private sectors. Leaders who contribute beyond their own organisations play an important role in strengthening the industry for the future, and we believe supporting that kind of contribution remains essential to the long-term development of Thailand’s hospitality ecosystem.”
Established by TCEB, the Thailand MICE Legacy Awards honour leaders, pioneers, and industry figures whose dedication and vision have helped shape Thailand’s MICE industry over several decades, recognising contributions across meetings, exhibitions, conventions, and the broader development of the country’s MICE industry.
