Trade Exhibitions for Industry Associations - Across the World

From Australia to Algeria, South Korea to Spain, ETF brings more than thirty years experience across five continents working with associations to create and grow their exhibitions and events.

ETF understands how a well designed trade exhibition can contribute to the industry, financial, education, networking and membership objectives of an association and we bring a culture of working with associations to achieve their objectives.

ETF's Experience

Throughout ETF’s thirty year’s experience we have worked with a diverse range of industries including automotive, business events, construction, energy, entertainment technology, finance, foodservice, irrigation, landscape, manufacturing, optical and transport.

Our experience also covers a wide range of formats including stand alone trade exhibitions, conferences with trade exhibitions and consumer (public) exhibitions.

Plus, by working with different industries, cultures and countries we bring a broad base of experience and ideas to all the events we manage.  We also have the flexibility to design a business model that meets your association’s needs.

ETF's Expertise

Whether you are looking at creating a new exhibition or wanting to re-energise an existing event ETF brings expertise to all facets of exhibition design and management.

From strategic planning, through sales and marketing, to on-site delivery ETF adds value to the exhibitions we manage.  Our track record across a range of events demonstrates ETF’s expertise. For example:

  • We were appointed by the Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries (FCAI) in 1998 to organise the Sydney International Motor Show and within three years increased the record attendance by thirty seven per cent to 330,000 people.
  • When Australia won the tender in 1995 for the 12th International Conference and Exhibition on Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG 12) the hosts, the Australian Gas Association, appointed ETF as exhibition managers. We doubled the size of the exhibition and have since won the tender with the following seven national associations including South Korea, Spain and Qatar.

We are currently organising LNG 17 Exhibition in Houston for the American Gas Association.

“LNG 17 will be the largest even the American Gas Association has conducted in our ninety-two year history and we chose ETF because of their proven dedication and innovation in planning, selling and delivering this global event” Jay Copan – Executive Director, LNG 17 Houston

ETF's Enthusiasm

Whether it is a once off event or a relationship that has lasted for decades ETF lives the industries we work with. Our dedicated exhibition teams have built a reputation for the passion and enthusiasm they bring to the events they manage.

From small niche exhibitions to global scale events ETF understands the role that an exhibition plays within an industry and we strive to make the event successful for all the industry stakeholders.  Our objective is to deliver exhibitions that add value to associations.
