Beijing Exhibition Centre (BEC)

With its timeline starting back in 1954, Beijing Exhibition Center (BEC) comes as the first-ever massive comprehensive exhibition venue in Beijing. It features, among others, the genuine inscriptions of late Chairman Mao Zedong and was once honored by the presence of late Premier Zhou Enlai at its ribbon-cutting ceremony. Beijing Exhibition Center stands as the core arm of Capital Tourism Group Corporation and is holding vice presidency of China Exhibition Hall Association at the moment. As the first ISO-9001-certified in the exhibition sector of Beijing, Beijing Exhibition Center is well-positioned to “play host to cross-border exhibitions, including business and technical events”. Arguably, it can meet virtually all hardware standards for modern international exhibitions industry-wide following its radical retooling and face-lifting in infrastructure and facilities in 2000.
