Meetings & Events Australia (MEA) has confirmed that it will host its National Conference at the International Convention Centre Sydney (ICC Sydney) from April 30 to May 2, 2017. Other new events set to take place at Australia’s newest integrated convention, exhibition and entertainment precinct include Associations Forum’s National Conference (July 17-18, 2017) and Australasian Society of Association Executives (AuSAE) Conference and Exhibition (May 11-12 2017).
Following its annual conference in France, International Association of Convention Centres (AIPC) has also announced ICC Sydney as the destination for its July 2017 conference.
Geoff Donaghy, CEO, ICC Sydney said he is delighted with the local and international response to the precinct, and is looking forward to welcoming some of the industry’s top minds to a space that has been custom-designed. He said, “Interest in ICC Sydney is booming, with over 100 major conventions and exhibitions confirmed. We are building a strong case for the venue as a world leader and clients are responding to our integrated offering, cutting edge facilities and flexible meeting spaces, along with the centre’s contemporary design and unbeatable location. Association events are critical to the mix of a global city as they drive business relationships, knowledge transfer, and industry investment. Their active support means ICC Sydney, and the business events we host, will play a fundamental role in supporting professional development and fostering the local knowledge economy – both of which are key to ensuring Sydney remains competitive and attracts top talent.”
