Yogyakarta merupakan salah satu destinasi utama MICE di Indonesia. Kekayaan budaya dan alam, serta tersedianya fasilitas dan infrastruktur yang baik mampu menarik banyak wisatawan MICE datang untuk mengadakan acaranya di kota ini. Namun dengan berpindahnya bandara utama Yogyakarta, dari Adisutjipto International Airport ke Yogyakarta International Airport di Kulon Progo mengakibatkan perjalanan wisatawan, yang menggunakan moda transportasi udara, menuju fasilitas MICE tidak efisien. Disisi lain, pembangunan Yogyakarta International Aiport akan diikuti dengan pembangunan kawasan aerotropolis baru. Kawasan ini membutuhkan fasilitas-fasilitas baru, termasuk fasilitas MICE, untuk mendukung kelangsungan hidup kawasan. Berdasar hal tersebut, pembangunan Convention & Exhibition Centre di kawasan aerotropolis Kulon Progo dinilai tepat untuk dikembangkan.Agar Convention & Exhibition Centre dapat bersaing dengan fasilitas MICE lainnya yang ada di dunia, maka Convention & Exhibition Centre harus memiliki karakter yang jelas dan menarik. Pendekatan sense of place dengan mengusung konsep The Richness of Kulon Progo diharapkan mampu membuat Convention & Exhibition Centre di kawasan aertropolis Kulon Progo ini unggul dibanding dengan fasilitas MICE lainnya.
