I am extending my stay in Brisbane, what can I
do?
Lucky you! ATEC will be offering delegates the opportunity to join a full day trip showcasing some of Brisbane’s highlights. This tour will be run pre-Meeting Place (24 Nov) and post the event (28 Nov). Alternatively, feel free to explore Brisbane and surrounds yourself.
What are the B2B workshop sessions all about?
This component of the event involves a series of 25 commercial pre-scheduled appointment sessions between Buyer and seller delegates. Sellers will have a designated table in the workshop room (which you can brand how you’d like). Delegates will have the opportunity to preference and pre-select their appointment schedule. At the end of each 9-minute session the buyer will move to the next table in numeric order.
Seller delegates get a choice of either session A (26 Nov 8am – 1 pm) OR session B (27 Nov 8am – 1 pm). Buyer delegates attend both sessions.
What is the dress code for the event?
The dress code for Meeting Place is smart casual. The Gala dinner theme is 'Time Travellers Ball' - Travel back in time or into the future and have a little fun along the way. We encourage delegates to dress up as decades, icons, historical figures or go futuristic. Get some inspiration HERE.
