The National Body for Sales and Marketing Shifts Location as it Reaches 40 Years of Creating & Connecting Marketers

Singapore, 17 June 2013 – As Marketing Institute of Singapore (MIS) celebrates its new milestone of 40 years anniversary, it warrants introspection to relook at the way it runs its business. With effect from 29 April 2013, MIS (comprising of the Membership and Executive Development business) and MIS Training Centre (MISBS) have relocated to a new premise at North Bridge Road, after 5 eventful years at Anson Centre. The new campus is known as MIS Main Campus.

The strategic move to North Bridge Road not only positions MIS as a place synonymous with private institution and youthful buzz but also provides students and members easy access to classes after work, with its close proximity to Bugis and City Hall MRT stations. The institute is just directly opposite the National Library Board which provides convenience for students who need to gather resources for their project work. MIS Main Campus also has more classrooms to address growing training needs and provide better facilities to participants of the Executive Development Services and Membership events.

Moreover, students and members are to expect a new state-of-art executive lounge where the highly popular networking events Marketer’s Night and Marketing Guru Talks will be held. The lounge is also embedded with facilities such as wifi connection, stage with rostrum and bar counter, which are accessible to both students and members.

"We aim to make a million connections between marketers because marketing thrives on ideas. The more connections, the more sharing of ideas. Housing both MIS & MISBS under one roof creates the opportunities for marketers and students to meet, learn and share ideas.” said Mr Tok Lim Hoe, President of MIS.

Members of the Public are invited to MISBS Open House on 6 July 2013 for a campus walk around, employment-ready talks, flea market and witness the MISBS Idol Competition. We are also giving away mini iPad for the first 40 sign-ups as well as application fee (up to $321) waiver for all sign-up.
