Message from Adriaan our Chief Executive Officer

Whether you own your business work in the industry or have an interest in business events our aim for the 29^th Congress is to help you grow your business and ultimately grow our industry at large.

If you think you’ve attended a Congress before and you don’t need to attend again, well… think again!

Our keynote speakers will deliver our themed message it’s Business – It’s Personal like never before, we shuffled our programme framework and will have over 30 specific topics that can help you in your everyday business and break the mould of old style top down presentations in a dark and stuffy room.

New and exciting changes to this year’s Congress includes:

On Sunday we have :

• The first new members and first time attendance induction programme
• The welcome function moves to Sunday lunch
• And our evening dinner will be a Re-Connect evening focused on maximising your networking opportunities

Monday

• The South African National Convention Bureau and South African Tourism presentation moves to Monday to a prime spot
• Followed by the Annual General Meeting, the State of the Association Addresses 
• After lunch we will break away into various sessions covering - Hot Topics, Solution Sessions, Tech Central and a Future Focus programme.
• And in the evening, join us for an extravaganza as we share impeccable food and announce the SAACI Awards

Tuesday

• The last day kicks off with something Out of the Ordinary.
• A round table feedback session for delegates to give feedback on SAACI and the Congress
• Then we wrap up with What’s Next and handover to our next host province, the Free State

Let’s connect – Let’s inspire
