India – Naveen Rizvi, the new Regional Director for Pacific World India - Indian Ocean Region, shares some of the event and destination management company’s recent developments.
Rizvi was recently appointed to focus on product development and innovation for business events in India, Nepal and Bhutan, as well as other countries within the Indian Ocean, including Mauritius, Sri Lanka, the Maldives, United Arab Emirates (Dubai and Abu Dhabi), Oman and Southern Africa.
Some of the latest incentive ideas that the Pacific World team have started to conceptualise include: exploring an untouched island and spending the day by indulging in fishing in India, feeding elephants with the help of a Mahout in an Elephant Village near Jaipur.
“We are also developing various programmes in conjunction with ‘Shaping Lives’, our CSR Foundation, a bridge between our clients and the local population of India to give something back to the society. Key work includes supporting children and the elderly as well as those who have been marginalised and abused. The charity also actively pursues programmes supporting animal welfare,” said Rizvi.
