at the industry tradeshow.
Corbin Ball is a highly acclaimed speaker and writer. He has designed, budgeted, established and managed numerous business events across the globe. He has worked with budgets exceeding six million dollars and has organised events catering to 14,000+ individuals.
Mr Ball's event master class, titled, "Technology trends transforming the industry – what this means to you" will cover the most significant technology trends in events, exhibitions and society in general.
Jodie Richmond, CEO of Exhibitions & Trade Fairs, says the addition of international guest speakers is a major coup and will be a drawcard for visitors.
"Our research confirms that one of the reasons event buyers and organisers come to the expo is to have access to good educational opportunities across the broad spectrum of events. The renewed events master classes, armed with an international line up, has completely revolutionised the educational aspect of ABEE.
