Free seminars will help you host a great event

November 7, 2008

A GOOD idea never goes astray. And with many an editor saying they want to do more to meet the readers, the ability to hold quality, small-scale events can be valuable to the newspaper business.

The Australian Conference and Events Bureau is holding a series of seminar in about 10 days – not much use for our New Zealand colleagues (sorry about that). The ACEB puts on an excellent seminar and has previously offered valuable advice to members and non-members alike.

These particular seminars are free. The bureau promises to cover entertainment & speakers, audio visual, theming, transport, tours, merchandise, exhibition hire, event management & team building. If you need to add public or private events to your media schedule next year, then this seminar should be a great starting point for new ideas or a fresh approach.
