Spalba has signed more than 150 hotels in the first half of 2025, marking a sharp increase in adoption of digital platforms for meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions (MICE).
Strong Partner Renewals Highlight Platform Value
Close to 40% of Spalba’s signings came from contract renewals with existing partners, reflecting a robust renewal rate of over 79%. These include marquee properties such as The Oberoi New Delhi, Pullman Aerocity, Alila Diwa Goa, Leela Bhartiya City Bengaluru, and Heritage Village Manesar.
Expanding Footprint Across Key Markets
New additions to the platform feature properties in major Indian and South Asian markets, including Hilton Kathmandu, Leela Gandhinagar, Grand Hyatt Gurgaon, and Fairmont Mumbai. This expansion underscores the growing interest in digital venue sourcing for corporate events.
Surge in Corporate Queries
The company reported a 300% rise in query volumes on the platform during January–June 2025, crossing 1,500 queries compared to the same period last year. Corporate buyers and planners increasingly rely on Spalba to evaluate venues digitally before finalising bookings.
Empowering Boutique and Niche Properties
In addition to large hotel chains, boutique and niche properties are joining Spalba. Recent sign-ups include Signature Club Resort, The Corinthians Resort, Cherish Ballroom VasantKunj, Neo Convention Hyderabad, Caravela Beach Resort Goa, the Club Mumbai, India Expo Mart Ltd., and more. Analysts note this trend as smaller players leverage technology to compete for MICE business.
