ESSA – The Event Supplier and Services Association

Exhibit 3Sixty have recently become members of ESSA to benefit from the status of becoming an ‘approved supplier’ within the industry.

The Event Supplier and Services Association is a trade association representing exhibition stand contractors and suppliers of goods and services to the events industry. It shares a secretariat with its sister organisations, the Association of Event Organisers (AEO) and the Association of Event Venues (AEV) and thus benefits from the central information source. The development of a closer relationship and understanding between organisers their suppliers and venues can only benefit the industry as a whole.

This closer relationship is partly demonstrated by way of joint working groups covering a range of issues into which all sides of the industry have an important input. It is also a major step towards the goal of enabling the industry to speak with a united voice when striving to increase its share of the marketing cake.
