Gold Coast secures $50 million business event

More than 8,000 delegates from Chinese health care company Infinitus will convene on the Gold Coast in May 2018, for a six-day incentive program. The mammoth business event is one of the largest ever secured for Australia, with Queensland Minister for Tourism and Major Events Kate Jones predicting it would inject around $50 million worth of economic benefit into the state. “This is a great example of collaboration between Tourism and Events Queensland, Tourism Australia and Gold Coast Tourism to secure a major business event for Queensland and grow our tourism industry,” Jones said.
