It’s a Gold win for Gold Coast business events

Ambassadors and Champions representing Gold Coast Business Events have been commended for their
role of securing $40 million into the Gold Coast economy.

Ambassadors and Champions were formally recognised for their contribution in an awards ceremony last
week at Sea World Resort Conference Centre in a presentation by City of Gold Coast Mayor, Cr Tom Tate.

The Gold Coast Tourism Ambassadors Circle has resulted in $40 million in conferences, meetings and
events booked for the Gold Coast since 2013.

Business events are a major contributor to the city’s economic and social capital with the industry contributing $376 million to the local economy in 2015.

The Ambassador Circle unites influential leaders from key local industries to proactively promote the Gold
Coast to the rest of the world through their industry networks.

Gold Coast Tourism Director of Business Events Anna Case says Ambassadors and Champions are an
integral part of achieving increased business events for the city.

“Ambassadors volunteer their time and expertise when they step forward to bid for a conference. The
events they help to deliver not only contribute to the economy; they also enrich our city with opportunities
to host world leaders and industry experts as delegates attending conferences on the Gold Coast.”
