News this week: French-based hotel group, Accor, has been appointed as the venue operator of the new Jaipur Exhibition
& Convention Centre (JECC). JECC, which opened in November 2014 is located
in the industrial-focused area of Sitapura, and sits 5km away from the Jaipur
International Airport. The venue was jointly developed by the Dangayach Group and Derewala Group.
JECC houses two exhibition halls with a combined indoor exhibition space of
20,000 m2 and another 10,000 m2 of outdoor space. The
venue’s convention centre can cater up to 1,200 seated delegates. A 241-room
Novotel is located on-site and will begin operations in 2016.
Jean-Michel Cassé, senior vice president of Accor India, said, “Accor’s
appointment to manage JECC is a reflection of the group’s experience in
managing major conference and exhibition facilities across India. In India, we
have been the pioneer in the field of Convention Centres, through the Hyderabad
International Convention Centre and the Lavasa International Convention Centre
and Novotel Visakhapatnam Varun Beach.”
