AIME 2021: Important Event Update

As we look towards 2021, we are pleased to announce that AIME will now take place from 15-17 March at the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre, incorporating a virtual format.

In an AIME first, we are taking the show hybrid!

With uncertainty around international travel as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have developed a show model that combines virtual and live event components, to ensure the industry can still meet, exchange knowledge and do much needed business, wherever they are in the world.

“We understand that we all have a role to play in driving business events to help rebuild global economies and the new hybrid AIME is being designed to quickly help kickstart our industry in 2021. By moving the show to March, we are giving the industry some extra time to adjust to post-COVID conditions as well as providing them with a road to new business opportunity." Matt Pearce, CEO, Talk2 Media & Events

THE HYBRID MODEL
The AIME hybrid model will see exhibitors, hosted buyers and visitors attend either in person in Melbourne and virtually via the AIME online event portal.

SHOW DATES
Virtual attendees will no longer be restricted to the physical show dates. Meetings and Knowledge program content can be accessed around the clock.

AIME BUYERS
The show will see an increase in the number of virtual buyers who have previously been unable to attend due to geographical reasons.

EXHIBITORS
Exhibitors unable to attend due to travel restrictions can still participate as a virtual exhibitor with the same access to AIME buyers both live and virtual.

Further improvements are also in the works across the show, including an updated meeting matching process, which will adopt a more enhanced filtered approach designed to deliver better meeting outcomes for exhibitors and buyers, virtual networking opportunities and new activations on the show floor.

So while things maybe a little different for 2021 and beyond, we can assure you that our core objectives at AIME are still the same; generate business, exchange knowledge and ideas and provide a platform for our community to meet ... no matter the climate we are faced with
