A new business events show, Get Local, has been launched in Australia, with organisers saying the focus will be on the industry, suppliers and destinations of Australasia.
Gary Bender and Donna Kessler, owners of Get Global, will launch their inaugural domestic business events show called Get Local, on 30 July 2021 at ICC Sydney.
Celebrating Australasian destinations and suppliers, Get Local will take inspiration, ideas and show format knowledge from their existing international destination show Get Global.
The co-founders said: “We, like our entire industry, have felt the impact of Covid-19 in our day-to-day businesses, so we want to do something concrete to help the industry kick-start again.
“Get Local gives us a chance to re-connect and inspire the business events industry in Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific.By July 2021, we will be well and truly ready to see our friends and colleagues and get back to business,” said Bender who added Get Local would be a Covid-safe event “adhering to all state and federal requirements in place at that time”.
“There has been industry pressure for some time for a local show and now is the right time to push ahead with our plans. There is so much incredible product available and conferencing is a key driver of our economy, it’s time to focus on what we have in our own backyard.”
