Other new sponsors: Corporate Traveller, Air New Zealand, The Association of Corporate Travel Executives (ACTE); the Professional Conference Organisers Association (PCO); and International Special Events Society (ISES).
Sally de Swart, Reed Travel Exhibitions’ (RTE) director for AIME, said, “We are asking our existing and new association partners to contribute to our refreshed Education Programme which will assist us in delivering relevant and interesting content that addresses the current challenges and issues facing the meetings and incentives industry.â€
AIME 2012 is also shaking things up on the show floor with a new Association Lounge for association members to use for meetings, as well as an additional Globe restaurant, sponsored by Singapore Tourism.
“It’s AIME’s 20th birthday, so of course this year’s networking functions will be second to none, including a new Tuesday night event,†de Swart said.
