The PA Expo opens today

The PA Expo officially opens today. It is the only free-to-attend event in the North of England that brings together executive support professionals from around the UK to take advantage of ample networking opportunities and to benefit from meeting with leading professionals in the industry. The PA Expo attendees will have the opportunity to meet with more than 150 exhibitors, all related specifically to a PA’s working day.

The array of exhibitors, which are carefully tailored to PAs, will also be available from categories such as health & wellbeing, corporate gifts, business travel and personal development, along with many more.

This year, in order to maximise networking opportunities, the PA Expo will co-locate with the Venue Expo 2016, which is in its third year as a leading MICE industry event in the North of England. Of course, attendees can benefit from the high-profile exhibitors at The Venue Expo, such as meeting with local and overseas businesses, hotels, destinations and AV & sound. All the latest technologies, products and services will be available from a wide range of exhibitors, who will be showcasing the very best in the industry.

The PA Expo also offers attendees the opportunity to expand on their learning and skills by attending workshops by keynote speakers and leading professionals who will share their experiences and expertise on a variety of topics. Attendees will be able to gain CPD-accredited certificates from a number of education streams across two seminar theatres. And key networking groups and associations will enjoy liaising with industry peers in the vibrant designated networking areas.

If you’re attending the PA Expo, be sure to stop by stand J28 to say hello to the PA Life team and find out what we have lined up for 2017. PA Life Editor Amelia Walker will be hosting a panel discussion on ‘Driving your own career’ Day Two from 1pm-2pm on the Taylor Lynn Corporation PA Stage, while Deputy Editor Molly Dyson will chair a panel on ‘The future of the VA industry’ on the same day from 3pm-4pm on the same stage.
