Nina Freysen-Pretorius was elected as president of the International Congress and Convention Association (ICCA) at the association’s Annual General Assembly.
Freysen-Pretorius, owner of Durban-, Cape Town- and Johannesburg-based The Conference Company, has been second vice-president of ICCA since October 2010.
She is the immediate past president of the Southern African Association of the Conference Industry (SAACI).
“Having worked internationally with so many ICCA members across the world, I believe I understand the challenges of the industry. ICCA and the conference industry are entering a new phase of innovation and growth. The organisation needs a president who can build on the successes of recent ICCA leaders, who can think strategically, inspire excellence and provide insight into the challenges of its members,” says Freyson-Pretorius.
If you know of any other women like Nina who are making waves within the MICE industry, nominate them to be included in the Top 40 Women in Mice.
