Particularly relevant to Destination Marketing Organisations, but of interest to anyone responsible for dealing<br />

with airlines and local airport authorities.<br />

Description<br />

Two of our speakers represent companies that are the leading consultants to airports and airlines around the world<br />

about the effective development of their global and regional routes networks, and they are joined by an <strong>ICCA</strong><br />

colleague from Hyderabad's own fast-expanding, award-winning international airport. Destination Marketing<br />

Organisations are increasingly getting involved in these strategic issues alongside their airports, so this session<br />

offers a unique opportunity to understand how the economics and politics of network expansion really work, how<br />

DMOs can support and influence the process, and what other issues influence the future success of your local airport.<br />

RDG also organises the well-known series of Routes conferences, a great opportunity for destination marketing<br />

professionals to interact with airline and airport decision-makers.<br />

General interest for anyone interested in India's important future role in the global economy.<br />

Format Presentation + Question & Answer<br />

Description<br />

By the year 2020 there will be over 500 million Indians between school entry level and age 35. Will they become a<br />

powerful force for growth and progress both in India and in the wider world, or a cause of massive social upheaval?<br />

How does education - basic, university, and lifelong - play a critical role in determining the answers to this<br />

fundamental question? At this session you'll understand the barriers that India has had to overcome in building a<br />

society-wide educational strategy, the continuing challenges - financial, political, social, institutional - that have to be<br />

fought every day, and the opportunities and benefits that will flow throughout the globalised economy if India can<br />

deliver the right educational answers for its citizens.<br />

Audience<br />

General interest; particularly interesting for those who don't yet know much about Apps.<br />

Description<br />

Most meetings and trade show attendees are carrying web-enabled phones. These “micro-computers” are<br />

increasingly being used for networking, lead exchange, electronic ticketing, way finding, audience polling, surveys,<br />

pocket programs, pocket exhibit guides, course notes/literature collection and much more. New phone apps for<br />

events are emerging daily. This program will cover the hottest new mobile trends for meetings and what is likely<br />

coming in the next few years.<br />

Learner objectives:<br />

• Explore the wide range of emerging mobile applications for meetings and tradeshows.<br />

• See how these tools can help meeting planners do their jobs more efficiently, greatly improve the attendee<br />

experience and help reduce the blizzard of paper commonly found at events.<br />

• Receive numerous links for free meeting-industry related phone applications that you can start using today.<br />
