EXSA – the Exhibition & Event Association Of Southern Africa – is hosting its EXSA-llence Awards next week, on 18 January at CedarWoods of Sandton. The best of the best in the local exhibition industry will be acknowledged and honoured at an ‘Out of Africa’ themed awards evening.
A call for Award nominations and entries
A call for nominations has gone out for the EXSA-llence Awards; nominations must be made by EXSA members, and only for EXSA members’ work.
A new category this year is for the Green Stand Award. It will be assessed by the Event Greening Forum NPO for exhibition stand builders across three categories: small, medium and large exhibition stands.
