Agility Fairs & Events is the official freight forwarder and onsite logistics provider to the 2019 Australasian College for Infection Prevention and Control Conference.

About Agility Fairs & Events:

Agility specialises in exhibition freight forwarding – both domestic and international. Agility can ensure that your product, display & merchandise are in the right place, at the right time, providing a complete transport, materials handling & storage service. Agility provides a complete service including monitoring of freight from your doorstep right through to your exhibition booth to make sure your goods are handled in a professional manner and all formalities/deadlines are met. If you are using Agility, your goods will automatically be delivered to your exhibition booth.

Agility Fairs & Events offers the following services:

All local, interstate and international transport services including delivery onto each exhibitors’ stand at the venue
Storage of early consignments, packing materials during the exhibition and storage after the exhibition
For international exhibitors, a comprehensive international freight forwarding service tailored to each particular exhibitor’s requirements.

As the conference bumps in / out on very tight parameters and deliveries will not be accepted at the venue earlier, we highly recommend using Agility as their service is door-to-stand and they work weekends and outside normal business hours.

Why should you use Agility Fairs & Events? Refer to the ‘F & E Australia – Benefits of Using Agility’ (above).

Please Note: Exhibitor freight deliveries will only be accepted at the PCEC on Sunday 17 November after 12pm (midday).

There will be limited on-site storage facilities for packing materials, boxes and giveaways. It is recommended that exhibitors keep packing materials to a minimum.

The App Game

All sponsors and exhibitors will be issued QR codes as part of the 2019 App Game designed to encourage delegate flow and interaction.

Exhibitors can choose to clearly display the QR code on or within your booth to avoid unnecessary interruptions or you can ‘hide’ the code to ensure interaction with your representatives.

Each QR code will reveal the exhibitors’ company name.

To enter the draw, participants will need to have collected all sponsor and exhibitor names.

Key sponsors will also be given the first opportunity to provide prizes.

If you would like to donate a prize please contact andrew@conferencedesign.com.au.

Conference App – Lead Management

The 2019 ACIPC Conference App features a Lead Management function, where you can pre-load questions to assist your staff onsite at the conference.

When a delegate visits your stand, with their permission, you can scan their QR code on their name badge and you will be provided with the delegates’ contact details.

You can set up the function so that it prompts the delegates to enter information on what their enquiring is about. This information can then be sent back to a staff member in the office or saved for actioning after the conference.

An automatic email can also be pre-loaded through the Lead Management function which can be sent to all delegates who have their QR codes scanned at your stand. A brochure can be attached to this email or it might just be a simple ‘Thank you for visiting’.

Instructions on how to set up lead management for the conference app will be emailed to all sponsors and exhibitors prior to the conference.
