Conference Global trends, what happened in 2017 and what's happening in 2018?

Interactive Learning Presentation - Conference Global trends

I recently attended the Professional Convention Management Association (PCMA) conference in Nashville Tn. As conferencing is an important part of more association’s revenue source, I came away with some fantastic Global Trends is which I would like to share with you.

These being

            -  Different techniques and ideas in conference sponsorship
            -  How attendee’s mindset has shifted over the last 15 years
            -  Creating a movement within your association not just holding a conference
            -  And much more…

In addition, I have teamed up with Marie-Claire, CEO of ‘The Event Tech Tribe’. They are a collaboration of multiple event technology based companies, which can enhance your workflow and engagement leading up to, throughout and after your event. She is based in Wellington and travels overseas extensively. Marie-Claire has first-hand experience in how technology is shaping events globally.

Conferences, meetings and events are an important functionality of most associations and not-for-profit organisations. These events are used for membership engagement, education and an important revenue source for our organisations. We all need to find ways to engage our members and community.

One of the reasons you joined AuSAE was to make connections and learn more about the sector so you could succeed as a professional and advance your organisation. Join other professionals who share your same challenges and experiences in an informal and relaxed setting.

Please register in advance - These interactive meetings is free to attend for AuSAE members and for first-time non-member guests. If non-members of AuSAE are attending their second or more roundtable discussion, there is a fee of $35.
