The Affiliate scheme developed by Arena and Convention Centre Liverpool (ACC Liverpool - photo) is a new initiative aiming to bring together influential individuals with a passion for the economic development of the city of Liverpool.
Some of Liverpool’s and the UK’s best known industrialists have agreed to become a ‘business champion’ for ACC Liverpool.
Affiliates will promote the development of meetings, congresses and events at the BT Convention Centre and in turn help broaden the business and investment appeal of Liverpool, ultimately developing the city’s economy.
Membership of the ACC Liverpool Affiliate scheme is strictly by invitation only. Champions already include; John Wagner, Cycas Hospitality; Duncan Reid, UBM – Confex group and Jack Stopforth, Liverpool Chamber of Commerce.
Bob Prattey, Chief Executive of ACC Liverpool said, “We are delighted to welcome some of the industry’s and city’s most well known business and political figures into the ACC Liverpool fold."
"Between them they bring a wealth of business experience and sector specific knowledge which we can use to continue building the venue’s brand and to bring even more high profile national and international events and conferences to the city."
“By working together we can help shape Liverpool as a leading conference destination. Business tourism already represents a significant portion of the city’s economy – since the BT Convention Centre opened it has already contributed millions to Liverpool businesses and it is an area which will continue to grow.”
