Virtual and hybrid events company Delegate Connect has hired Bernadette Panton as head of industry engagement in the Asia Pacific.
Panton joins Delegate Connect from Talk2 Media and Events where she was the hosted buyer manager for Asia Pacific Incentives and Meetings Events (AIME).
Based in Melbourne, her role will support the company’s expansion into international markets, both within Asia Pacific and through Europe, the UK and North America.
Panton added that she had joined the company because of the growth and promise of the hybrid and virtual events sector in a post-pandemic world.
“Our industry has seen rapid and irreversible change over the past year and our shift towards a hybrid, virtual and digitally-enabled future has been accelerated dramatically.”
