Introducing the APCS Market SquareIt is with pleasure that we invite you to exhibit at the 2015 Asia Pacific Cities Summit (2015APCS) & Mayors’ Forum.

2015APCS represents your very best opportunity to meet the decision-makers of the Asia Pacific’s leading cities, all in the one location and at the same time. If you wish to profile your brand or products to the government and business leaders of these important metropolises, there can be no better option than participating in the APCS Market Square.

The Market Square will be an interactive space where sponsors and exhibitors will present their organisations within the social hub of the event. Catering spaces, a café and adjacent meeting facilities will ensure high delegate traffic throughout the Market Square for the duration of the Summit.

The Market Square is an important and integral component of 2015APCS. This is reflected in the very architecture of the Market Square, which is arranged to compliment the 2015APCS program themes.

Innovation is a key feature of the Market Square. Entertainment events and displays reflecting the business program themes will be staged in the Market Square during morning and afternoon refreshment breaks and lunches. Special refreshment breaks will be served to groups of delegates with like business interests in the adjacent meeting area. The major sponsors and partners of 2015APCS are planning major interactive and experiential displays within the Market Square – all of these features will combine to make the Market Square a draw card for all 2015APCS delegates.

The APCS Market Square will be staged within the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre (BCEC), the official venue for 2015APCS.
