Meetings & Events Australia (MEA) has revealed that its 2022 annual conference, Evolve, will be held from June 29-30, 2022 at the Sofitel Melbourne On Collins.
A welcome function will be held on the evening of June 29, ahead of the conference proper and an event dinner on the day and evening of June 30. The Melbourne Convention Bureau will be a major sponsor of the event.
Traditionally coupled with Evolve is an Awards dinner at which national awards are presented. However, the MEA Board has resolved that an awards programme for 2021 will not be conducted.
MEA CEO Peter McDonald said: “We hope that our early public commitment to lead by example and proceed with our conference will give rise and reassurance to the market and sector at a time when its most needed.”
He also shared that former head of innovation and creativity from Disney, Duncan Wardle, has been confirmed as a keynote speaker.
A registration portal and event programme will be made available and published in the coming weeks
