MegaMeet 2012 will comprise:
> Australia, New Zealand & Pacifi c Hotel Industry Conference (ANZPHIC 2012) – that for 12 years has been the region’s leading conference for CEO’s and senior executives;
> Serviced Apartments Summit 2012 – the only event in Australia and New Zealand covering the burgeoning serviced apartments sector that now accounts for over 25% of accommodation room supply;
> The Ted Event – a new technology event created by well known industry IT specialist, Ted Horner; and
> The Tourism Accommodation Australia Awards for Excellence 2012 – the most prestigious awards in the hospitality industry, honoring the achievement of excellence in accommodation, dining, entertainment, marketing, training, community service and talented employees.
The creator of Megameet 2012, Horwath HTL CEO Mr John Smith described it as a fi rst ever regional industry initiative and one designed to provide two way benefi ts for attendees. “Industry executives will for the fi rst time be able to efficiently plan for and participate in a package of knowledge sharing events in the same location at the same time, rather suffer the disruption and cost of having to attend individual events in different locations at different times” Mr Smith said.
“It will also enable participants from each event to meet up at MegaMeet Greet! which will comprise a networking cocktail function at the Hilton Sydney on Wednesday 25 July. We expect this will be the largest ever networking event for industry executives in Australia, New Zealand and the Pacifi c” he added.
Commenting on the initiative Carol Giuseppi, Director Tourism Accommodation Australia (NSW) said “ANZPHIC has long been recognised as the premier conference for the accommodation industry. Sponsoring ANZPHIC 2012 and positioning the TAA(NSW) Awards for Excellence under the Megameet umbrella, provides a powerful, integrated platform that maximises the participation of all in the industry”.
Ted Horner, Managing Director of E Horner & Associates added “The Ted Event is proud to partner in the launch of Megameet as a “one stop shop” of key hospitality industry events in the region and in doing so is delighted that guest technology will be brought onto the main stage of industry focus”.
A feature of Megameet 2012 is that it will enable attendees to pick and choose which events to attend whilst also being able to meet up at the MegaMeet Greet! networking function - thereby enabling companies to send employees to individual events suited to them whilst enabling all company delegates to come together for the networking event.
