Brent Spillane

Director
“Being part of a team that creates a world-class platform for NZ businesses to meet face to face, network, and buy and sell their latest products is extremely rewarding. The amount of trade sales that our exhibitors achieve at our events is important for NZ business and the overall economy….and I am proud to be a part of that.”

Richard Bews

General Manager
“The team at XPO are dedicated to ensuring our customers get the most they can out of their event experience. It’s always great to hear when a team member has helped an exhibitor or sponsor exceed their expectations. Industry Associations play an important part in all of our Trade Events, and it’s critical for us to develop strong 2-way relationships with key industry partners.”

Irene Smith

Group Marketing Manager
"We just love to hear about good news stories and positive customer experiences. When exhibitors, visitors and conference attendees tell us that our event exceeded their expectations, recommending us and our events to their industry peers and colleagues – our team can be satisfied at a job well done. We’re all Exhibitionists at heart! "
