UPGroup Asia and The MasterPlan Sign Venue Partnership with METT Singapore

The strategic collaboration brings together METT Singapore's luxury event spaces, The MasterPlan LLP's commercial and programme expertise, and UPGroup Asia's AVL production, technical expertise, and integrated venue operations capabilities to deliver seamless, high-impact events at scale, strengthening the venue's position in the MICE and premium events landscape.

SINGAPORE, April 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- METT Singapore, UPGroup Asia, and The MasterPlan today announced a strategic partnership agreement that brings together the lifestyle hotel's luxury event spaces with UPGroup Asia's advanced AVL production capabilities and The MasterPlan LLP's expertise in high-value business events. The agreement was signed on 17 April 2026 at METT Singapore, 11 Canning Walk, Singapore, during METTUP 2026, a networking event for professionals from the MICE, hospitality and events industries.

Under the partnership, UPGroup Asia joins METT Singapore as its preferred AVL partner, delivering audio, visual, lighting, and livestream production solutions for events at the venue, while activating its Venue Management Programme to elevate the venue's event operations.

"METT Singapore has the spaces and the character that corporate clients are increasingly looking for. Our role is to make sure the production side is seamless, so that the technical execution never gets in the way of the experience. Having The MasterPlan alongside us means that clients also have access to programme design and stakeholder management expertise from day one. That combination means clients have everything they need to deliver a high-quality event experience, in a venue that is already built for it."

—  Adam Piperdy, Founder & Chief Experience Officer, UPGroup Asia

The MasterPlan, specialising in business-to-business events including conferences, seminars, product and media launches, C-level meetings, and curating customer experiences, takes on the role of preferred B2B event agency and programme partner, supporting event organisers in designing and executing programmes at METT Singapore.

"Our clients want venues that can deliver on the full promise of an event: the setting, the programme, and the production. METT Singapore gives us that setting, and working alongside UPGroup Asia means the production capability is already in place. For meeting planners and corporate clients looking for a venue that is both distinctive and operationally ready, METT Singapore delivers on both."

— Jasmine Ho, Founder & Managing Partner, The MasterPlan LLP
