     According to Mr. Talun Theng, the leader of the management team of TRUE ICON HALL, the new venue boasts many first-time-in-Thailand and first-time-in-Asia features.

     For the first time in Asia in a conference venue, the ceilings are made from panels of light pixels which allow very precisely tunable ambient lighting to suit every occasion.  The ceilings can also be used to run colours and animations, enabling stunningly immersive multi-media experiences to excite audiences and manage moods in concerts as well as meetings and events, he said.

Special performance
     Among other first-time-in-Thailand features of TRUE ICON HALL are the sound insulation systems that have been embedded into the walls, double operable walls to ensure soundproof and to enable totally disruption-free meetings to be held, regardless of what else may be happening in adjacent or nearby halls.
Special performance

   Mr. Theng, said, Among the most important features of this conference and entertainment facility is the inspirational location and layout that breaks the tradition of such places just being big boxes.  Our extraordinary placement inside a globally admired destination, such as ICONSIAM, and being next to a breath-taking riverside setting makes every meeting that much more special.

     He added, Our role is to go beyond just providing physical meeting or performance space.  We aim to help people maximise their ability to connect and inspire others with what they have to say and share.  Doing that successfully is the result of great enabling technology, great facilities and an unrivalled location. TRUE ICON Hall is integrated into a larger platform that is one of the worlds most-awarded destinations, globally admired for its stunning design, vast and varied cultural offerings, and its exciting diversity of activities, entertainment, restaurants, and extraordinary shopping possibilities that combine the best of the world with the best of Thailand.

     Mr. Theng said TRUE ICON HALL already has more than 30 important conferences and events confirmed for next year and another 100 pending confirmation, with guest numbers ranging from 200 to almost 3,000 people per event.

     We are particularly proud that one of the regions most important medical conferences  the Asia-Pacific Society of Cardiology Annual Conference  has already confirmed to hold its meetings at TRUE ICON HALL during March 2021, he noted.
