Brussels, 10 September 2014 - The European Vending Association (EVA) Conference themed, “Maximising your success for the next 20 years” and Annual General Assembly is to be held in Brussels on 11 December 2014.
The EVA - as in previous years - has created a dedicated website to provide information about the Event and allow participants to register. A link to the registration website can be found on the EVA website.
The Conference will include key speakers addressing important topics relevant to the industry, such as ‘fiscal trends,’ ‘adapting to changing consumption habits,’ and the ‘understanding the potential of branding to attract new customers.’ Speeches will be followed by an interactive discussion allowing attendees an opportunity to share their views on these themes.
2014 marks the 20 years anniversary of the foundation of the European Vending Association. The Event therefore will have a celebratory feel, with key figures over the last two decades adding a few words on how the EVA has evolved, and explaining their own impact on its development.
Two unique venues have been lined up, with the Conference and AGM taking place at the historic Hotel Le Plaza, and the evening reception and dinner to be held at the Belgian Comics Museum. The EVA has furthermore negotiated an interesting hotel accommodation rate for attendees. More information on this and a programme of the day can be found by consulting the registration website.
The event has been actively supported by a number of EVA members, who have chosen to be its sponsors. Ingenico, VeriFone, Advantech, and 24Vend together with Unicum are Platinum sponsors covering the Conference and AGM. They will also be showcasing their latest products at the reserved exhibition space at the event venue. Microtronic is the exclusive Titanium sponsor of the event, sponsoring not only the Conference and AGM, but additionally the Gala dinner at The Belgian Comics Museum. The Gala dinner will take place on the evening of December 11 in a jazz atmosphere.
We are looking forward to seeing a wide range of key industry actors at what promises to be an exciting and interesting event.
