This year, we’re thrilled to host our premiere Bloc Conference at the stunning Phuket Marriott Resort & Spa, Merlin Beach. Nestled along a tranquil private beach, yet a mere ten minutes from the vibrant Patong Beach, the resort offers a serene oasis for our event. You’ll find contemporary rooms with a touch of Thai elegance, extensive amenities, and breathtaking views.
Our expanded three-day conference schedule is meticulously crafted to offer valuable networking opportunities with the best in the industry. Expect engaging sessions, insightful discussions, and plenty of opportunities for one-on-one meetings.
But it’s not all work! We believe in the power of relaxation and fun in building strong business relationships. This year, we’re excited to introduce a pre-conference cocktail evening – a perfect opportunity to network in a casual setting. Plus, the resort’s facilities, including three stunning pools, a variety of water sports, and an array of dining experiences, ensure there’s something for everyone.
