Partnership with premier Bureau delivers five phenomenal speakers
Announcement posted by Get Global 10 May 2019
For the first time, Saxton Speakers Bureau have partnered with award-winning tradeshow Get Global, to deliver an extraordinary line-up of speakers.
Leadership, management, motivation, diversity, wellbeing, branding and resilience will all be covered at Get Global on 26 July, as more exceptional speakers are confirmed for the full day program.
Anne Jamieson, CEO, Saxton Speakers Bureau, commented on the partnership.
“The next two to three years for Saxton is all about growth and for us to achieve this we need to align with strategic partners. We see Get Global as a key partner for us moving forward and are thrilled to be involved with their 2019 event.
“At Saxton, we believe in the power of stories to drive positive change. We have carefully curated speakers for Get Global who will share stories that will leave audiences inspired to be the very best they can be,” said Ms Jamieson.
The one-day program sees five speakers presenting throughout the day:
“Get Global is a day with a purpose. Not only can attendees network and see great international products, but they can also hear from truly inspirational people,” said Mr Bender.
The unique perspectives and experiences these five speakers will bring is hugely valuable to the meeting and events community, says co-founder of Get Global Donna Kessler.
“Some of us fall into the events industry from different careers and paths. It’s great to have speakers that people actually want to hear and learn from. We are thrilled to be partnering with Saxton’s for the first time and are pleased to welcome these five great speakers to our show,” said Ms Kessler.
Get Global will be held in The Gallery, ICC Sydney, Friday 26 July 2019.

ABOUT GET GLOBAL | 26 July 2019, International Convention Centre (ICC) Sydney
www.getglobal.com.au
Get Global is a joint venture between two passionate industry professionals who identified a gap in the market for an outbound industry tradeshow. The show is an innovative and efficient business platform for international suppliers to connect with corporate meeting planners, incentive houses, PCO's, travel companies and anyone else that has international group business from Australia. Get Global, launched in 2017, was hailed a huge success by exhibitors and buyers alike. This innovative format for doing business is an intensive one day exhibition with 100% international product and is NOT your typical tradeshow. Get Global now heading into its third year in 2019, promises more exhibitors (Go Getters), more buyers and more countries represented.
Get Global is the largest event of its kind in the Asia Pacific region.
In 2017 and 2018, Get Global was awarded ‘Exhibition of the Year’ at the National Meetings and Events Australia Awards.
