The Board of Directors of POPAI Australia & New Zealand and the organising Committee of the Visual Industries Suppliers Association (VISA) are pleased to announce that they have agreed to co-locate their 2009 Expo’s at Sydney’s Darling Harbour on the 22nd, 23rd and 24th October 2009.

Whilst both shows will run as separate events, VISA’s General Manager Peter Harper is enthusiastic that Delegates registered to attend either VISA’s Visual Impact Expo (‘VIIE’) or POPAI’s 2009 Marketing at Retail Expo will now be able to access both shows, clearly increasing the benefits afforded to all who attend this major event.

POPAI’s CEO Tom Harris agrees believing that this initiative by VISA and POPAI will bring a whole new clientele to both events with POPAI’s audience of Retailers, Shopping Centre Operators, FMCG & Retail Brands, Media, Design & Advertising Agencies joining those from VISA’s Graphic, Sign, Printing and Engraving Industries.

Both organisations are keenly aware that 2009 will bring many challenges to their Members. They strongly believe that their decision to co-locate their shows for 2009 will greatly increase the benefits & business advantages flowing from this significantly larger event directly to their members & exhibitors.
