Hosting an event at Marina Bay Sands means you're playing on a world stage. Your attendees—global executives, industry leaders, and VIPs—don't just expect an event; they expect a flawless experience. And that experience begins long before they walk through the doors. It begins with your registration form.

For an event at a world-class venue, a generic, clunky, or insecure form isn't just an inconvenience; it's a crack in your brand's premium image. It must be as sophisticated, secure, and impressive as the iconic location itself.

This guide will walk you through the essential elements for creating the ultimate registration form for your Marina Bay Sands event—one that boosts registrations, provides a seamless user experience, and ensures compliance with Singapore's Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA).

Part 1: The Attendee Experience – Designing for a VIP Audience

1. A Premium, Branded Look and Feel

   Your form is a digital extension of your event. It must be beautifully branded with your event logo, colors, and typography. A professional aesthetic builds immediate trust and signals the quality of the event to come.

2. A Smart, Frictionless Flow

   High-profile attendees are time-poor. Don't greet them with a wall of 20 questions. Instead, use a progressive, multi-page approach:

   • Page 1 (The Essentials): Capture the most critical information first: Name, Email, Company, Title.

   • Page 2 (Event Details): After securing the basic registration, ask for details like dietary requirements, session choices, or RSVPs for special workshops. Walla Form’s conditional logic can even tailor questions based on ticket type.

3. Mobile-First, Always

   Your attendees are registering on their phones from airport lounges, taxis, and between meetings. The registration experience must be perfect and lightning-fast on a mobile device.

Part 2: The Organizer's Workflow – Data, Security, and PDPA Compliance

A beautiful form is only half the story. The backend process must be secure, efficient, and fully compliant.

1. Uncompromising Security (The PDPA Protection Obligation):

   You are collecting the personal and professional data of industry leaders. This data must be protected with "reasonable security arrangements."

   • Your Action: Use a platform that guarantees end-to-end encryption for all data, both in transit as it's submitted and at rest in your database.

2. Mastering Data Residency (The PDPA Transfer Limitation Obligation):

   Your attendees are global, but your event is in Singapore. Storing their data on default servers in the US or Europe creates a significant compliance burden under the PDPA's strict cross-border transfer rules.

   • The Professional Solution: The most robust and trustworthy approach is to store this data locally. By using Walla Form's Singapore data region, you demonstrate to attendees and corporate sponsors that you adhere to the highest standards of data governance, aligning perfectly with PDPA's principles.

3. Capturing Granular, Compliant Consent:

   You'll want to communicate with attendees after the event. To do this compliantly, you need their explicit consent for each type of communication.

   • Your Action: Your registration form must include separate, unchecked checkboxes. For example:

     • □ Please send me news and offers about future events.

     • □ I agree to share my contact details (Name, Title, Company) with select event sponsors.

The Ultimate MBS Event Form Workflow with Walla Form

2. Structure: Implement conditional logic for different ticket types (e.g., VIP, General Admission) to show relevant questions.

3. Comply: Add clear, granular, unchecked consent fields for post-event communications.

4. Localize: In your Walla settings, select the Singapore data region for PDPA compliance peace of mind.

5. Integrate: Connect your form to your payment gateway for ticket sales and use Walla's API or Zapier integration to automatically sync registrant data with your CRM and email marketing platform.
