About Marina Central Business Improvement District
Marina Central Business Improvement District (BID) was formed in November 2019 as a non-profit organisation that is committed to support businesses in the district to thrive, enliven common spaces through public events and build a community for common good.
Led by a Board of Directors, Marina Central BID is a collaboration between four commercial stakeholders – Marina Square, Millenia Singapore, South Beach and Suntec City; with Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay as a community partner.
The BID initiative is part of Urban Redevelopment Authority’s pilot Business Improvement District programme to enliven public spaces and improve visitor experiences to different districts of Singapore. The intentional place management approach between the private and public sectors seek to enhance the attractiveness and distinctiveness of the city.
