WORLD PCO ALLIANCE SPREADS its WINGS in AFRICA,
EUROPE and the AMERICAS

WPCOA was launched last year at IMEX 2009, with seven Asian members. World PCO Alliance has now spread its wings to include new members from Africa, Europe and Americas and are proud to announce that there are 15 Alliance Members. Known as World PCO Alliance this cohesive group was formed by highly motivated PCOs to capitalize on the efficiency of consolidating regional conference and event services within one network.

Currently the alliance comprises 15 members who have set out to exchange best practice, improve service quality and streamline operations and sales in order to maximize outcomes for clients and member PCOs. This will be achieved through pooling the expertise and resources of the alliance members.? Membership is currently based upon invitation only and comprises private and independent PCOs.

World PCO is already actively involved in staff exchange for training, sharing information for bidding, sharing current technology, addressing client referrals, exchanging knowledge and supporting and sharing best industry practices.

This initiative was conceived by seven members from China, India, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Singapore and Taiwan. As information about the proposed alliance became better known in the PCO industry founding members and potential members met at IMEX and agreed upon the establishment of the global alliance.? Five more applications are currently awaiting approval.
.
World PCO Alliance is headed by Mr. Anthony Wong Group Managing Director of AOS Conventions & Events Malaysia who is the former Chair of ICCA Asia Pacific Chapter and former First Vice President of ICCA. Mr. Per Ankaer from International Conference Services Denmark is the Vice President and Ms. Kayo Nomura from Congress Corporation Japan is the Alliance¡¯s Secretary.

The gathering at IMEX 2010 was the second meeting of World PCO Alliance and its Annual General Meeting will be convened each year at IMEX.
