The Director for Australian Activities will be Peter Rose, while John Bourne, a well-known industry figure, will manage the exhibition and conference side of the event. Long term Australian show director Paul Curtis has retired, but has been retained as a consultant by the new show management team.
Peter Rose said, “Our first two shows set successive record shows for the Australian industry. The 2007 Melbourne show broke new ground with the introduction of retailer buying offices while in Brisbane this year we introduced a new registration system to involve individual retailers and their customers directly with the exhibition.
“For our 2009 event we will be again looking at new ways to stimulate the imaging market and ensure a maximum attendance by all retailers, professionals and consumers. Our educational conference sessions benefit both retailers and suppliers alike, and plans are under way to help develop new markets for all attendees,” added Rose.
The PMA’s Emerging Technology and Print Technology Conferences will be heavily promoted as show organisers look to strengthen the growing relationships with the graphic artist, advertising and wide format print community.
Professional programs will also feature an AIPP conference programs and the judging of the AIPP Professional Photography of the Year Awards.
The popular DIMA Emerging Technology Conference will be held on Thursday 25th June, the day preceding the exhibition opening.
