PENANG recorded a total of 156 business events in 2020 despite the halt on international travel and limitations placed on daily activities due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

These attracted 19,283 participants who amassed 48,963 room nights and brought the state an estimated economic impact of RM66mil — according to the Penang Convention and Exhibition Bureau (PCEB).
