The company cannot yet release details of Laservision’s Shannon Brooks and John Kehoe The Asia region has been a steadily expanding market
for OmniTicket Network for several years now and the key focus has been on Singapore, Hong Kong, China, Japan, Thailand and the Philippines, in addition to other countries in the region. According to John Davis, operations director for
OmniTicket Network’s UK office, AAE 2012 was a “very good” event for the group, with many qualified buyers in attendance and many new projects coming to light. “We feel that it is very important to maintain a staffed
sales and support office in the region and we regularly evaluate if and how we should look to expand upon our presence in the Asian region,” he told InterPark. AAE not only remains an important business arena for
Asia - it also remains a key focal point for companies in the Pacific region. At this year’s event, Sanderson Group, the Australia-based design and construction firm which specialises in the tourism and leisure industries, signed an exclusive partnership with entertainment group, Village Roadshow, at the expo. The deal will see the two companies deliver turnkey
solutions for investors and developers in the world tourism and leisure industries. Robert Kirby, chairman of Village Roadshow, and Steve Sanderson, chairman of Sanderson Group,
formalised the agreement together with their
international development teams at the Hong Kong exhibition with a champagne celebration signing ceremony. ‘Asia is booming’ Pax Company of Moscow, Russia, continues to acquire
installation contracts around the world and at AAE 2012 the group signed the contract for the largest giant wheel in the world.
the venue or country in which the wheel will be installed, but Anna Novikova, deputy director of Pax’s international department, commented: “We have very positive impressions of AAE 2012, both in terms of the event organisation and quality of visitors. Hong Kong is very impressive - there are a lot of new facilities and new developments within existing venues. This could be seen in Ocean Park and Hong Kong Disneyland during amazing post-show receptions. A post-show tour to Chimelong resort was very informative and extremely well organised. Asia is booming. “The trade show itself proved to be efficient because
we met our well-known clients and partners to discuss our future joint operation projects,” Novikova added. “We had also a number of prospective leads not only from the Asian region but also from the Middle East and Europe.” Anglo/French company Interlink, which specialises in
water rides and has also recently added a range of second generation Panoramic Towers to its product portfolio, reported “very good” business during the first half of 2012 and had a good reaction to its range of attractions at AAE and a positive overall impression of the event. “The show was well attended by both exhibitors and
visitors,” commented managing director John Hudd. “Asia continues to be an active market for us, particularly the South East Asia area, so it is important for us to back up this activity by attending key industry events.”
