The popular Business Events Forum will focus on Corporate Social Responsibility, looking at what leading edge organisations are doing to make a difference.
Featuring an international panel facilitated by Elizabeth Rich, executive director, Business Events Council of Australia, the Forum will provide information on how organisations can adapt business practices to operate in a way that meets or exceeds the ethical, social and environmental expectations of today’s society.
AIME’s Master Class program continues in 2009 with 10 one-hour Master Classes providing practical information to make planning an event even easier.
Hosted Buyers will also have access to a special Master Class, scheduled to complement their appointment schedules.
“We have worked closely with Event Planners Australia, a professional conference organiser to deliver the most relevant topics for buyers and delegates to AIME 09,†said acting event director, Elizabeth Sarian.
“Exit surveys plus a later email survey to gain feedback from visitors on topics and speakers they are most interested in cemented our approach to deliver relevant intellectual content and provide a strong facilitator for each session.
“Suggested topics such as technology, human resources, time management and ROI have been included in the program,†she said.
