BESYDNEY RETAINS 70 PER CENT OF COVID-19 IMPACTED MEETINGS

Business Events Sydney (BESydney) has released its Annual Financial Report, noting that in financial year 2019-20, it secured 49 new global meetings worth an estimated A$167 million in direct expenditure for NSW, and retained and rescheduled 70 per cent of the meetings impacted by COVID-19 into future years. 

Speaking at the company’s Annual General Meeting, BESydney Board Chair The Hon. Bruce Baird AM, said: “Despite the immediate and significant impacts of COVID-19 to BESydney’s operations, working with partners, the team has rescheduled 70 per cent of meetings from this year into future years, and there are 85 meetings and incentives confirmed for Sydney from CY 2021 to 2026 as at 30 June 2020. 

Retaining the majority of meetings is a great recognition of BESydney’s strong client and stakeholder relationships and our partners’ flexibility.”
