Through the fund, business event organisers planning a new business event for Western Australia can apply for sponsorship of up to $15 a delegate, to a maximum of $10,000, for new in-person events.
Eligible events include conferences, exhibitions or tradeshows, workshops and seminars, as well as corporate meetings and incentive group events with a business event program.
Western Australian Tourism Minister David Templeman welcomed the extension, stating the funding provided to Business Events Perth by the State Government supported the local industry and the long supply chain of jobs associated with business events.
“Business Events Perth has supported events all over Western Australia, from Kununurra to Albany, that has brought more than 100,000 delegates together to meet, connect and collaborate. This is a great result for our State’s business events sector, which supports thousands of jobs across a range of local businesses, big and small, and shows that the appetite for events and meeting in-person is strong in Western Australia.”
Event Here Now sponsorship is valid only for new business event bookings to be held in Western Australia prior to December 31, 2021.
The total funding support is determined by the event duration and the number of delegates attending the event in person.
