On May 11 and 12, delegates from around the world will meet at the beach in the Bahamas for the first ever global networking exhibition, GNEX 2011. Over thirty speakers will take the stage over two days of innovative session topics at the iconic beachfront Atlantis Resort on Paradise Island.
Keynote speakers include Craig M. Nash, Chairman, President & CEO of Interval Leisure Group and Ron Kurtz, President of American Affluence Research Centre; events will include Speed Networking, a meet-and-greet Cocktail Party, lively debate and discussion, and the much-anticipated Perspective Magazine Gala Awards Dinner on the final night.
Nagivating Change is timely theme of the conference, which should provide plenty of food for thought for delegates across all sectors of the shared ownership industry and global markets. What’s the best way to address the industry’s burning issues and satisfy consumers’ changing habits? Which changes need (or do not need) to be made to keep two steps ahead? Where are the buyers, how do you reach them? What are the newest, most significant trends?
Speakers and sessions will address how to build on strategic partnerships, which ones work best, which locations are tipped as top choices for new resorts, what sort of resorts work best in today’s climate, and much more.
Over seventy-five companies have registered, including top professionals in a number of diverse sectors within the shared ownership industry.
