ProMag Publishing Ltd

ProMag Publishing Ltd , organiser of the Pacific Area Incentives and Conferences Expo, is well known to the New Zealand conventions and incentives marketplace through its popular publication Meeting Newz magazine which is the leading source of information for professionals in the conference, incentive and exhibition industries of New Zealand, and TRAVELinc magazine targeting travel agents and travel managers of corporate incentive and high yield leisure travel.

The combined readership of TRAVELinc and Meeting Newz consists of executives in professional, sporting and trade associations and institutes around New Zealand, as well as meeting planners in the corporate sector and in government departments. Corporate travel agents, professional conference organisers and incentive organisers also look forward to receiving the publication on a bi-monthly basis.

Because the magazines are sent out regularly on alternate months, the readership database is updated continuously and is an accurate, living record of the key buyers in this marketplace. The decision-makers on this database are the very people targeted through advertising, direct mail and telemarketing to attend PAICE 2010.

The database has developed over more than a decade and is managed through regular contact with buyers by email, telephone and by members of ProMag attending industry familiarisation trips and by ProMag exhibiting at other major exhibition events, both in New Zealand and Australian.

ProMag organises the Convene Auckland trade exhibition in April each year to meet the needs of Auckland event planners looking to hold meetings, staff parties, product launches, seminars etc in the greater Auckland area.

ProMag people

ProMag publisher and editor Stu Freeman is in constant contact with the key players in the conference and incentive sectors of New Zealand, Asia and the Pacific. His decision to launch PAICE in 2004 was a direct result of enquiry and demand from both the Pacific/Asia operators and from corporate and association buyers who have expressed a desire to attend a show such as this.

Ruth Scott is the contact point for buyers and hosted buyers to PAICE.  Buyers wishing to register their interest in attending PAICE or wanting more information, please email Ruth Scott or phone 09 818 7807.
