The news: A new analysis from Economic Times shows that India's MICE industry is struggling to build the skilled workforce needed to match rapid sector growth. The report flags gaps in hospitality training, event management credentials, and customer service capabilities across DMCs, hotels, and PCOs.

Why it matters for MICE operators: Talent shortages directly impact your ability to scale. Finding trained event coordinators, venue managers, and support staff has become harder and more expensive. This affects service quality, project delivery timelines, and your bottom line. Operators who invest in training pipelines now will have a competitive edge as demand grows.

The takeaway: Start building partnerships with hospitality institutes and training centers to create a reliable talent pipeline for your business.
