'What is the Bureau?' Seminar Well Received
30-Jun-2011 | Business Events Tasmania held a successful 'What is the Bureau?' seminar on May 31 with positive feedback received by attendees.
Held in conjunction with The Australian Association of Convention Bureaux (AACB), of which Business Events Tasmania is a member, the free seminar helped to raise awareness amongst event planners about the role of convention bureaux. The goal of the seminar was to direct event planners, who are not currently aware of the free service available through organisations like Business Events Tasmania, to a bureau for assistance with planning a business event.Attendees enjoyed presentations by Paula Leishman of Leishman and Associates, Steve King from Qantas Airways, and the Business Events Tasmania team. Held at Village Cinemas, the formal component was followed by a screening of The Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, complete with popcorn and choc top.
Here is an example of some of the feedback we have received:
"We really enjoyed the seminar last Tuesday night. The speakers provided some great insight and examples of how they had utilised your team, as well as the ways in which they had broadened their own scope and developed independent skills that are highly beneficial when preparing a conference or event. It was also great to meet members of the Business Events Tasmania team."
