Strategic Advice for Associations

The best ideas don't belong to one association. They come from sharing experiences. While in Singapore, Deanna chatted with James Latham from The Iceberg publication, to discuss the conversations behind the Mission and Margin white paper series. 


They explored the practical lessons shared by association leaders and why learning from one another matters.

Growing Business Events in Alice Springs

Mayvin Global was in Alice Springs this year to support business events capability building - and the momentum is real.


What makes this program so effective is genuine collaboration between local tourism operators, Tourism Central Australia (TCA) providing vital on-the-ground marketing support, and Northern Territory Business Events (NTBE) doing the behind-the-scenes heavy lifting to bring association events to the region. The future looks bright for business events with a strong pipeline of association meetings coming to Alice Springs – from Plant Societies to the Congress of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Nurses and Midwives and the Australian Water Association Many Voices conference.

If you are an operator in Central Australia and would like to find out more about confirmed business events, or the TCA Business Events Capability program contact Ian Bowhay.

Famil Notes: Alice Springs Delivers a Sense of Place

There's always more to discover in Central Australia from extraordinary landscapes, deep cultural connections and a creative community unlike anywhere else.


Alice Springs offers what matters most for conferences and business events: a genuine sense of place, backed by quality venues and a business community that is genuinely welcoming.

Beyond the Alice Springs Convention Centre, the destination boasts gems like the Araluen Arts Centre, with its near-500-seat theatre and cultural spaces. From dining under desert skies to tasting bush foods and hearing local stories first hand, delegates leave with the chance to connect, reflect and think differently.


A sincere thank you to Northern Territory Business Events (NTBE) for the opportunity to be involved in this association focused famil, and to the local operators and community members who shared their time, insights and hospitality. For information on how to bring your association meeting to the Northern Territory, reach out to the NTBE team.
