- Valuable business sessions.
- Excellent supplier deals.
- Wonderful networking opportunities.

Thanks to funding from newsXpress preferred suppliers and newsXpress, every interstate newsXpress member will receive a rebate towards their airfares/travel costs. This is another first, it helps ensure that more newsXpress members make the tips and participate in the conference.
We have chosen the date to tie in with the Toy Fair in Melbourne. With toys are a growing category for newsXpress members, attending the Toy Fair the day before would offer a valuable insight.
Please lock in the date now. March 9, 2012. This will not change. We have booked and paid for the venue. We will release a full agenda in late January 2012. For now the points below will give you an idea of the day and night function.

The event will be held at the Melbourne Convention Centre which is directly adjacent to the Melbourne Exhibition Centre where the Toy Fair is being held. The Convention Centre is close to many hotels ranging from budget accomodation to 5 star. We are asking members to book their own hotel and flights as this way you can find the best possible deal and use points etc if you want to.
The evening event will be a cockail party at the exciting and prestigious Eureka Tower. See Melbourne from on high while enjoying cocktails and some delicious finger food and networking with newsXpress colleagues and suppliers.
Kick off 2012 by attending and participating in this national conference. Get in early on special supplier deals, discover new business opportunities, connect with your newsXpress community in a more valuable and bankable way.
We are thrilled to announce that Gold sponsors for the conference so far are: Pacific Magazines, Jenlist, Skansen, Tower Systems and Hallmark Cards. More will be announced soon. It is with the support of our sponsors that we are able to host this event for newsXpress members.
