AM26 Meeting Venue Selection
The ASIS&T Board is finalizing a decision on where to hold the 2026 Annual Meeting which is slated for Asia. We have narrowed down the selection to two cities, Bangkok, Thailand and Daegu, South Korea. We had hoped to offer Seoul as an option but were unable to find any hotels that met our cost criteria.
Below are details on the two venues. We are looking to the membership to provide your input and help us decide. In addition to your input, we will also consider the overall cost to the association of offering the meeting in each venue and the overall political environment and stability of each country.
Please review the two options detailed below then vote at the link on the bottom. Please cast only one vote.
Bangkok, Thailand
Daegu, South Korea
How to Get There
Suvarnabhumi International Airport is one of the biggest international airports in Southeast Asia, the 21st busiest airport in the world, and the busiest in the country. Bangkok can be accessed by taxi or rail link and takes 20 - 30 minutes.
Incheon Airport is the largest international airport in South Korea. There are two ways to go to Daegu from Incheon airport: 1) Domestic airline from ICN to Daegu - tranfer from ICN airport, or 2) Take an express train from ICN to Seoul station (direct), then take KTX from Seoul to Daegu, which runs every 10 minutes or so. The train to Seoul takes 40 minutes. The train from Seoul to Daegu takes 90 minutes.
