Kellie Northwood, VMA Chief Executive Officer, says: “This is an incredible opportunity for our Australian representatives to engage with global thought leaders and to see the print, sign and communication sectors through an international lens.”
“When our industry’s rising leaders connect with international peers, they return home inspired and equipped with new ideas that strengthen our entire sector.”
