KUALA Lumpur Convention Centre has appointed Alan Pryor general manager designate, replacing Peter Brokenshire who will retire at the end of March.
Brokenshire had spearheaded the establishment and opening of the venue in 2005, and has been leading it for the past 11 years.
The deputy general manager position, vacated by Pryor, will be filled by Simon Lomas, who will oversee the day-to-day operation of the centre as well as international, regional and local promotional activities.
Prior to joining the centre in 2011, Pryor was the director of operations at the Durban International Convention Centre (Durban ICC). During his 11-year tenure at Durban ICC, he also oversaw the opening of the Arena extension. Shortly before moving to Malaysia, Pryor was lead consultant of the Architectural Department of the Municipality of Durban City on its Priority Zone development, which included the Durban ICC and Arena, and was consulted on several conference facility projects.
