It is the first time these awards were introduced at ATM 2023. MMPRC stated that the award is a testament to the countless hours of work dedicated to curating the stand as the most attractive, vibrant, and energetic stand at the fair.
The Maldives is being showcased at ATM 2023 with a double-decker stand, in a space spanning over 429sqm.
