The Exhibition and Event Association of Australia (EEAA) and its members will mark the inaugural Global Exhibitions Day (GED16) with an Association AGM and its Leaders Forum event.
Global Exhibitions Day 2016, which will take place on 8-9 June, is designed bring together the global exhibition industry and celebrate the people who work in it.
EEAA chief executive Joyce DiMascio said there was no better way to amplify the voice of the exhibition and event sector than to have two of the Association’s most important annual gatherings coinciding with Global Exhibitions Day.
“Global Exhibitions Day is an important day to raise awareness about the Power of Exhibitions,” she said, “there is no better time to spread this message than when there is record investment in infrastructure and venues by Government around the country.
"Through the activities that EEAA and its Members have planned to mark Global Exhibitions Day, we will be part of the global effort to spread the message about our impact on trade, investment and the economy.
“The main event in our two-day Global Exhibitions Day Program is the EEAA 2016 Leaders Forum. We have a strong program designed to highlight new business opportunities, help enhance show security and mitigate risk, and take Australian exhibitions and events into the future.”
The Leaders Forum will focus on the identifying new business opportunities in exhibitions within Australia. It will also cover the current security climate, including cyber risks, incident preparation and response and technology in events.
“The Leaders Forum is set to be very thought-provoking and give our industry leaders an understanding of the current business climate, arming them with tools they can take back and apply in their businesses,” concluded DiMasio.
