* Unshackles Diners Club members to do business anywhere they travel *
Regus has extended its groundbreaking businessworld membership programme to Diners Club Thailand members so they can drop in to a smart, productive workplace wherever or whenever they need to get business done.
Regus Group (LSE: RGU), the leading global provider of workplace solutions, has recognised the potential and strategic location of the Thailand market since 2001 when it first set up a business centre in Bangkok.
In line with its expansion plans for the region, its presence in Thailand - South East Asia's gateway - has grown to include three centres in the capital: M Thai All Season Place and CRC Tower and Q House, Lumpini.
Confidence in the region's emerging markets and its potential for growth has led Regus to offer its businessworld Gold membership, and other products, to Diners Club Thailand members. The exclusive offer launches in February and includes a two-year free businessworld Gold membership (valued at US$600) for
Diners Club credit card holders. The deal also includes the first month free on a six-month office lease and two months free on a 12-month lease, as well as 35% off annual Virtual Office products.
"Diners Club Thailand is honoured to partner with Regus in providing additional benefits to our valued cardholders. We are delighted to offer the exclusivity of two-year Regus businessworld Gold membership free of charge to our cardholders," said Yingyong Vityananan, Diners Club Thailand General Manager. "This is an unparalleled benefit exclusively offered to Diners Club Thailand cardholders."
He added: "With Regus businessworld Gold membership, Diners Club Thailand cardholders have unlimited access to business lounges at Regus' three centres in Bangkok. They can freely access more than 1,000 Regus locations at major international city centres with complimentary high-speed Internet access and
refreshments."
Gold membership gives Diners Club Thailand members a quiet alternative to working in a coffee shop, where conversations can be overheard, as well as the support they need to seek new business opportunities wherever they need to be.
"As an emerging market, there is a need for frequent business travel both in Asia itself and Internationally. The partnership with Diners Club provides its members with first-class facilities and services wherever they travel," said Mark Dixon, Regus CEO. "With access to so many Regus locations globally,
businessworld membership means they can work wherever and however they want to. Travellers can meet clients in a professional environment and stay productive. It gives them the flexibility and facilities they need to seize business opportunities when they arise."
The deal offers Diners Club Thailand members complimentary access to a unique business product. Nearly 200,000 individual members and 10,000 companies worldwide have recognised businessworld's potential to save costs, provide flexible space at the best locations, with facilities supported by
state-of-the-art IT and telecommunications and professional staff. Regus estimates it will have one million members by the end of 2009.
