Invitation
I am pleased to invite you and your staff to Steadfast's Eleventh Convention at the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre from 14th - 17th March inclusive. The Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre has recently undergone further extensions and is ready for the arrival of Steadfast. The Centre is centrally located on the Gold Coast Highway at Broadbeach (opposite Jupiters Casino), and is close to both the shopping and restaurant precinct and a range of accommodation. You will love the relaxed atmosphere, in a resort location.
Our goal is to break attendance records this year and we need your support! You deserve the best and that's what we will achieve on the Gold Coast. We have an outstanding line up of Australia's premier speakers and business leaders who will share their experiences, knowledge and skills.
Our MC, Brett Rutledge will be at his brilliant best and the entertainment will be of a very, very high standard. Do not miss it.
Our Convention as always is strongly supported by our sponsors and exhibitors. Their support enables Steadfast to provide this high quality, value for money event that will be held in an award winning convention centre.
In 2009, Steadfast will host only one Shareholders Only Session throughout the Convention which will take place on Saturday the 14th March. The Shareholders Only CLOSED Session will begin at 9.30am and finish at 1.00pm. Returning from lunch at 1.30pm, Shareholders are encouraged to bring their staff to the second half of the meeting, which is the Shareholders' OPEN Session, this session will conclude at 3.15pm. There after Steadfast will open the Marketplace for networking and drinks. Further details on the Shareholders' CLOSED and OPEN Sessions will be sent to Shareholders closer to the Convention.
Please block out the 14th - 17th March 2009 in your diary as this will be our biggest and best Convention yet.
I look forward to seeing everyone on the Gold Coast in 2009...Lets make it happen!!
Regards
Greg Stewart
Convention Chairman
