ICC Sydney team secures array of awards at inaugural ABEA awards
December 12, 2024

International Convention Centre Sydney (ICC Sydney), managed by ASM Global, secured a raft of accolades at the Australian Business Events Association (ABEA) inaugural awards that took place at ICC Sydney on 10th December.        

ICC Sydney secured the award for 'Venue Team of the Year' in recognition for its commitment to excellence and employee engagement as they hosted 668 events, welcomed 1.7 million attendees and developed innovative event experiences during the qualifying period.

ICC Sydney’s RESPECT for People, Place and Planet and commitment to creating inclusive, sustainable events and a lasting social and environmental legacy was rewarded with the 'Sustainability Initiative – Social and Cultural' award.

The event also saw three ICC Sydney star talents, Rita Nassar, Yaroslav Lytvynenko and Paul Abanico celebrated their graduation from the ABEA Emerging Leaders Leading Well program.    

ICC Sydney Chief Executive, Adam Mather-Brown praised the professionalism of the team behind the accolades noting “I’m proud of our achievements-particularly our commitment to creating innovative event experiences that make a difference for our clients, delegates and our community.  

“From our venue team’s tried and tested world class operational practices, to our team training programs dedicated to driving positive social benefits for the people of New South Wales through our Legacy Program-these awards are a testament to the team’s hard work and dedication.

Organiser of the annual Elevate the Stage event that seeks to champion International Day of People with Disability, Director of JT Strategic Solutions & Events, John Trevillian, added “when selecting our venue partner, ICC Sydney was an unparalleled choice. Their team’s mission and values align perfectly with the objectives of our organisation and the event. They are deeply committed to making a difference in the local community. I commend ICC Sydney on taking home the Sustainability Initiative – Social and Cultural Award.”    

Director at PDK Events, Janine Condran shared “we congratulate ICC Sydney on the Venue Team of the Year award win. It takes a lot of competent professionals to deliver events for our clients. From the first point of call, through the intricate details in the weeks preceding the event, to the onsite execution, we have had the privilege of working with ICC Team Leads who deliver excellent results but more importantly care about the outcomes for both us and our clients.” 

 The inaugural 2024 Australian Business Event Association awards recognised the exceptional work of its members and highlighted the events, products, services, initiatives, and teams that are delivering best practice.
