Blessy Joy Magnetico
Experience Curator, LeViaMICE Travel
Blessy Joy Magnetico contributes to the experience-focused side of LeviaMICE, supporting the curation and coordination of travel experiences, destination activities, and memorable journeys.
Her role reflects LeviaMICE’s belief that exceptional travel goes beyond logistics. It is about understanding people, appreciating destinations, and bringing together the details that make each experience meaningful.
Our Approach
Thoughtful Planning. Seamless Coordination. Meaningful Experiences.
At LeviaMICE, we approach every journey with an understanding that no two clients, destinations or business objectives are the same.
We begin by understanding the purpose behind each engagement, whether it is an executive business trip, an international conference, an incentive programme or a privately curated holiday.
From planning and travel arrangements to hospitality coordination and destination experiences, we bring the relevant services and industry partners together to create a more connected travel experience.
Our approach is guided by four principles:
1. Understanding the Purpose
We take time to understand our clients’ objectives, expectations and travel requirements before developing appropriate solutions.
2. Integrated Coordination
We connect travel arrangements, accommodation, transportation, events and destination experiences to simplify the journey for our clients.
3. Industry Partnerships
We value relationships with airlines, hotels, destination operators, event professionals and tourism stakeholders, recognising that collaboration creates better opportunities and experiences.
4. Attention to Experience
Beyond logistics, we consider the details that make a journey worthwhile, from the quality of hospitality to the destination experiences and connections created along the way.
Ultimately, our goal is to make travel more purposeful, coordination more seamless and experiences more meaningful.
Our Work & Industry Engagement
Creating Connections Across Business, Travel and Destinations.
Our work extends beyond travel arrangements. We engage across the tourism, hospitality and MICE ecosystem, bringing together organisations, destinations, service providers and travellers.
Through travel coordination, event management, hospitality partnerships and destination experiences, we seek to create opportunities that connect people and businesses while contributing to the growth of the travel industry.
Our engagements reflect our interest in making African destinations more accessible for business, leisure and international gatherings.
MICE & Event Experiences
We have been involved in the conceptualisation, planning and coordination of events that bring people together around shared experiences and objectives. Our organisation of Mr and Miss Inclusive Kenya at the Kenyatta International Convention Centre (KICC) reflects our commitment to event coordination, stakeholder collaboration and inclusive experiences.
Corporate & International Travel
We support individual and group travel requirements, connecting travellers with accommodation, transportation and destination services while exploring opportunities that bring business and leisure together.
Hospitality & Destination Partnerships
We continue to develop relationships with hospitality providers, safari operators, destination specialists and tourism stakeholders to create opportunities for collaboration and access to distinctive African experiences.
Industry Participation & Recognition
Our journey includes participation in industry networks and engagements across the tourism and business ecosystem. LeviaMICE was nominated for Kenya’s Best MICE Organizer at the World MICE Awards 2025, reflecting our continued involvement in the country’s evolving MICE landscape.
We remain committed to learning, collaborating and contributing to conversations shaping the future of African tourism, corporate travel and destination experiences.
Through every engagement, we see an opportunity to build connections, strengthen partnerships and demonstrate the value of bringing business and experiences together.
