Event Media Relations
CONGRESSES, CONVENTIONS & EVENTS |
BANNERLINE has played a central role in
the organization, management and media relations for hundreds of events
with delegate counts from 10 to 3,000. We are either retained by the host
organization or convention managers, most frequently our associates at
Venue West Conference Services. In some instances, we play the principal
production role and retain necessary specialists such as Venue West. Any
aspect of these conferences related to media relations, audio-visual,
publications, major program attractions and entertainment, we invariably
do ourselves. Several of these have been world
congresses:
- World Small Animal Veterinary Association
World Congress - 2001
We were responsible for media and public relations for
this 2,000-delegate congress. Our principal client with this event was
subsequently awarded the top national honour in his profession for
public relations, based on the unprecedented publicity attained at the
World Congress.
- Pacific Rim Money Laundering Conference
- 2000
More than 500 of the world's leading experts on money
laundering met in Vancouver (police, justice officials, computer
specialists, bankers, accountants, lawyers, academics, various
government agencies) in the fall of 2000. Our two-year role was
strategic planning for the entire event, all publications, media
relations and the parallel trade show. Our clients were the RCMP, US
Treasury Department (Customs) and private sector partners.
- International Psychogeriatric Association
World Congress - 1999
This Congress attracted 3,000 psychiatrists, neurologists
and scientists involved with the subject of mental health and ageing,
including the dementias. We handled media relations, publications and
produced (with associate Gary Payne) a $150,000 network television
documentary.
- International Marine Transit Association
21st Annual Conference - 1996
Our client the British Columbia Ferry Corporation hosted
in Vancouver all of the world's leading ferry transport firms, a
relatively small event of 400 delegates, but individuals with immense
power and wealth within the shipping business. Our role was strategic
planning, congress management (delegated to Venue West), publications,
major program attractions and media relations. BC Ferries received
testimonials from around the world about this successful event.
- National Parking Association
1989 annual convention
Our client Imperial Parking Limited hosted over 1,000
delegates from around the world to the annual conference of this
Washington, D.C. based organization. We assisted with planning, the
program (including an address by the Premier of British Columbia),
entertainment, publications and media relations.
