Professors from the University of Macau (UM)’s Faculty of Business Administration (FBA), namely Professor Davis Fong (also serving as an advisor to the Macao Economy team of APAEM) and Professor Li Miao (a member of the Smart Tourism Team of APAEM), visited the University of Cape Verde (Uni-CV) on 12 and 13 November, where they delivered a lecture titled “Recent Development of Tourism and Integrated Resort Industry in Macao”.

During the lecture, Prof. Fong discussed the latest trends and developments in Macao’s tourism and the integrated resort industry, as well as the city’s transformation into a world center of tourism and leisure. He also shared his professional experience and insights in the field. Prof Fong noted that Macao’s experience provides a valuable reference for Cape Verde as it explores tourism diversification. He suggested that Cape Verde consider moving beyond the traditional “sun and sea” model and, by leveraging its cultural heritage and strengths in sustainable development, further explore ways to integrate culture, entertainment, conferences, and business elements into its tourism sector. Prof. Miao introduced the development of the Department of Integrated Resort and Tourism Management in UM FBA.

The event was organized by the School of Business and Governance at Uni-CV, with the aim of promoting exchange between UM and Uni-CV in the field of business administration.
