Bangkok International Trade & Exhibition Centre (BITEC) has been awarded the Friendly Design for MICE Venue certification at Thailand Friendly Design Expo 2025, held from 11–14 December 2025 at Hall EH101, BITEC, Bangkok.
This certification reflects BITEC’s readiness and long-standing commitment to providing an event venue that is truly accessible to everyone, including older persons, children, persons with disabilities, pregnant women, and visitors with specific accessibility needs.
Thailand Friendly Design Expo is organised by the Friendly Design for all Foundation, in collaboration with the Ministry of Social Development and Human Security, the Ministry of Culture, the Tourism Authority of Thailand, and multiple public and private sector partners. The event aims to promote the sustainable development of friendly design principles across buildings, service facilities, tourist attractions and public spaces throughout Thailand.
The Expo has been held continuously at BITEC since 2022, reflecting strong confidence in BITEC’s accessibility-ready systems, infrastructure and service standards, which have been developed and enhanced consistently over the years.


As part of the certification process, BITEC was comprehensively assessed across both infrastructure and venue management practices to ensure the venue can accommodate users of all abilities in an equitable manner. Key considerations included:
1.Universal Restrooms designed for convenient use by persons with disabilities, older adults and general visitors
2.Clear and intuitive wayfinding systems, enabling confident navigation throughout the venue
3.Appropriate services and facilities to support persons with disabilities and older visitors, delivered with care and attention
4.Inclusive venue management practices that prioritise accessibility, comfort and positive experiences for all user groups
This holistic readiness, combined with a knowledgeable and attentive team, enables organisers to manage events smoothly and with confidence at every stage.


The achievement of the Friendly Design for MICE Venue certification marks an important milestone in reinforcing BITEC’s vision of being “A Space for All”—where safety, equality and accessibility are at the core of continuous development. This approach also aligns with the sustainability strategy of BITEC and Bhiraj Buri Group (BBG), which places strong emphasis on enhancing quality of life alongside sustainable business growth.
Ms Jarupa Yindeemeed, General Manager – Venue Management & Services, BITEC, said:
“This recognition is not merely a confirmation of standards, but a reflection of BITEC’s belief in equitable access and our commitment to managing and delivering spaces and services that respond to the diverse needs of all users. Our goal is to create event experiences that are accessible, safe and of the highest quality—ensuring that every event, every experience and every participant is truly included.”

BITEC remains committed to continuously advancing its infrastructure, service innovation and accessibility standards, while actively promoting universal accessibility as a key benchmark for the future of the MICE industry.
