It was a treat to host the Meetings & Events Australia End of Year party last night at the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia. Celebrating 2024 with my incredible team Camilla B. , Sujin Lee & Bianca Wallington and of course my fellow MEA branch members Alishka Cooper , Danielle H. , Janene Wardrop MEM , Matt Whisker , Luke Hannan MBA. I’ve really enjoyed being a part of the MEA Branch for NSW this year and all of the opportunities it has provided to represent this incredible industry. Thanks to AV1 , Funktionality Events And Experiences & The Big Group for supporting the event ✨ Here’s to 2025!
