Following the success of the “survive and thrive in difficult times” seminars held in 2009, this series of seminars will concentrate on “Driving innovation through the adoption of new technologies” to ensure businesses continue to thrive and survive.
Australia has a reputation for its innovation, quality and skills and this seminar will assist companies to take advantage of and drive this competitive advantage.
AIMEX Chief Executive Officer MaryAnne Edwards said “The focus of this seminar is to help organisations in the marine sector remain competitive given the difficult operating environment marine businesses are combating day to day”.
The seminar will also cover the critical need to ensure that the culture within a company creates innovative proactive employees, a key ingredient to success.
“It has been a difficult year for many within the industry with businesses closing down, exchange rates continually fluctuating, dramatic slowdown in our key markets USA & Europe and the need to continually compete with the low costs of manufacturing available in emerging economies” Edwards added.
In these interactive seminars business experts from Madison Cross Corporate Advisory will provide an insight into many topics such as business opportunities created through new technologies and what technologies are available, examples of technologies applied and the results and how companies implement new technologies to drive sustainable results and harvest benefits. Seminars will be held in capital cities and members who attend will gain a wealth of knowledge from industry experts and guest speakers.
Seminars will be hosted in Gold Coast (20 July), Brisbane (25 Aug), Tasmania (27 Aug), Melbourne (9 Sept), Sydney (17 Sept) and Perth (21 Oct). Brochures and registration forms including session topics and information dates will be emailed to all members. Information will also be available on the AIMEX website www.aimex.asn.au
