The staff of Indonesian automotive components manufacturer ADR Group will be celebrating after winning Tourism Queensland’s Million Dollar Memo – AUD$1 million worth of Queensland travel incentives.

Tourism Queensland will now work with ADR Group to develop a million dollar Queensland incentive itinerary guaranteed to knock the socks off those who are lucky enough to travel to Queensland next year as part of the Million Dollar Memo prize.

ADR Group was named winner from amongst 20 finalists from 11 countries and regions after an eight day challenge which spanned a range of destinations and some of Queensland’s premium incentive experiences.

While the 20 finalists could not have been more diverse, representing small companies with less than 20 staff to global organisations with more than 1000, they all had two things in common – a drive to win and a new-found love of Queensland.

Tourism Queensland has invited the final 19 companies back to Queensland, Australia, tailoring itineraries for each company and their employees to the value $10,000 AUD.

The Final 20 included three chosen by popular vote which were:

• ASUS Design Centre (Taiwan),
• XinMedia (Taiwan),
• Yahoo! Taiwan (Taiwan)

and 17 chosen by Tourism Queensland, including: 

• ADR Group of Companies (Indonesia)
