A new player in the corporate events industry, Panache Conference and Events has launched in Melbourne.

A subsidiary of Acland Travel, the decision to launch an event management company was an organic evolution for the business.

Panache Conference and Events leverages the group’s existing supplier networks to provide clients with competitive buying power and a high-quality conference, event and travel experience.

Led by general manager Aspasia Papalitsas, the business aims to provide a fresh perspective on conferences, events and group travel.

“Panache brings a powerful combination of experience and business acumen, our people are at the core of our business,” she said.

“We thrive on a challenge and our team encompasses a rich mix of experiences and skills.”

Panache Conference and Events famil

To celebrate the launch, Panache is hosting a famil experience in conjunction with Spice Magazine.

The famil will take a small group of event professionals to the North Island of New Zealand to enjoy a carefully created two-day itinerary showcasing new venues and products for the business events industry.

Departing on 6 October 2019, the famil is open to executive assistants and conference and event managers who are invited to express their interest here.
