Rosemarie Sama, a former Event Director of AIME,
and ex-CEO of Luxperience, is launching a brand new event.
“I learnt from buyers feedback at the first
year’s Luxperience, which was incredibly well received by the
buyers and suppliers who participated, that there is a huge demand
for this type of event but that a greater focus on experiential
meetings and events was needed,” said Ms Sama. “Hence my event for
2013 has a new format and a new name – Luxe Events + Travel
Experiences (LETE).”
LETE 2013 will be held from 2-4 September 2013
at Sydney’s Overseas Passengers Terminal.
Ms Sama said the event will have a global focus,
and buyers will be cherry-picked to ensure only the highest
quality attendance from among high end travel agents, corporate
buyers and bespoke events planners.
The event will also not have any exhibition booths,
only lounge-style meeting areas and a fixed pricing system to
ensure a level playing field for participation and an affordable
entry price point.
A series of no less than eight networking events, all held around the Sydney Harbour area, will also be staged around the event as well as
inspiring education sessions.
“Rosemarie understands business and the high end
travel and event market, and knows the value of developing
connections and nurturing relationships,” said Simone Liu, Owner
and Director of Orana Events Australia. “Australia needs a
business exchange platform to showcase to the world we are a
unique luxury destination offering the business and leisure
traveler extraordinary travel experiences and events. With
Rosemarie at the helm, this annual event is sure to be a success.
I look forward to seeing it come to life!”
