Get Global wraps up, announces 2019 date

Buyers and exhibitors alike have again congratulated the Get Global team over the unrivalled success of the second year of the one-day trade event for international product.

With 286 senior local and international Go Getters (buyers) interacting with 140 international suppliers from over 20 different countries, attendees once again enthused over the flexible format and the introduction of new elements like the ICMI Inspiration Corner.

“I was thrilled to hear business being confirmed right on the exhibition floor as well as anecdotally throughout the day,” said Donna Kessler, Get Global co-founder.

“And that is what Get Global is all about. We are, of course, thrilled with the large turn-out of exhibitors, buyers, suppliers, sponsors and speakers, but the real success of the event is the business and the new partnerships formed.”

According to Pierre Lang, General Manager, Alila Seminyak, “A great atmosphere, great networking, great concept, great food, great bar concept! All like-minded, senior people exchanging ideas. Having fun doing business!”

Co-founder of Get Global, Gary Bender, “We are thrilled to announce we will be back on 26th July 2019. But having sold out of our exhibitor spaces this year, with the opportunity to sell many more, we’ll inevitability have to look for expanded or alternative event space for 2019. I expect an increase of over 30 per cent of both buyers and exhibitors next year.”

“When you are expecting people to leave their offices for a day or more, our focus is on delivering the best event and help create real connections, networking opportunities and the flexibility to business,” Bender concluded.

Michael Walker, Supplier Relationship Manager, Directions, Conference & Incentive Management enthused, “Love the freeflow and flexible time to meet with who I want and need to for my immediate business needs. Relaxed way to meet and connect with suppliers and peers”
