14. www.gl-events.com FEB. 2013 - PAGE 14 GL EVENTS EXHIBITIONSGL EVENTS VENUESGL EVENTS LIVE GL EVENTS The event market has been changing tremendously over the last few years: Concentration of organizers (merge and acquisition) (Exhibitions, PCOs, Venue management companies) Emergence of global players in the venue management (AEG OGDEN, SMG, Live Nations…) Massive investments from destinations: due to the positive external effects venues have on the local economy, governments are investing in building new and up-to-date venues. Strong incentive policies from destinations to attract international events (Kuala Lumpur, Macao, Abu Dhabi…) Diversity of the markets needs => multi-functional capacities of the venues, so they may host to all types of events Working towards a mature, international and professional market, where the sales and the promotion of an isolated venue in the event market prove to be more and more difficult The market
