Walker becomes new EEAA president

NICOLE Walker from Arinex has been appointed as the new President of the Exhibition and Event Association of Australasia (EEAA), replacing incumbent Spiro Anemogiannis.

Other office bearers elected at the organisation’s Annual General Meeting earlier this week include Helen Mantellato from ICC Sydney as Vice President; Paul Elliot from Harry the hirer as Treasurer; and Elissa Duke from the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre as Secretary.

Rodney Cox from Delaro and Rod Peter from Coleman Group join the board as supplier representatives, while Kym De Britt from the Australian Dental Industry Association is the Association representative.

Two additional venue designated board positions are vacant, with the EEAA Board now calling for expressions of interest from venue members, which close on 10 Dec.

Walker (pictured) said “it is a true honour to be elected as President of EEAA...I will continue the advocacy work, provide our members with clear outcomes, drive quality training and best practice to grow their businesses”.
