ISES Communications Update

This years Communications Round Table was held at Eventworld in San Francisco. I attended the round table and from that I would like to communicate some things to our chapter regarding the Our Plan of work, Strategic plan and the MARCOM (Marketing and Communications) COMMITTEE’s goals for 2009 -2010.

MARCOM was created To develop and deliver information to the special events industry and the general public concerning ISES programs, products, services, and industry involvement. Our chapter’s communications committee serves the same purpose. The following are some of the combined committee’s objectives.

~Obtain and / or write articles for inclusion in Industry related magazines.
