ITN International, Info Salons Group Partner on Mobile Asia Expo

August 6, 2012

In a unique partnership model, U.S.-based ITN International and Australia-based Info Salons Group worked together to provide registration, access control and lead retrieval for London-based organizer GSMA’s Mobile Asia Expo.


Mobile Asia Expo attracted more than 15,500 visitors to its first large event in mainland China at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre.


ITN International provided GSMA the technology needed to support advance registration, onsite check-in, onsite registration, event access control and lead retrieval.


“We enjoyed an ideal partner in working with Info Salons and are eager to begin our next joint project,” said Ivan Lazarev, president and CEO, ITN International.


Info Salons Group provided the essential in-county services required, including translation services, call center services, China RMB credit card and invoice processing, fapiao receipt management, logistics and onsite staffing.


“The teaming of our two firms for Mobile Asia Expo could well be a model effort,” said Jo-Anne Kelleway, CEO, Info Salons Group. “The synergies we achieved were obvious to GSMA and, I hope, to their attendees and exhibitors as well.”

Mobile Asia featured more than 200 exhibitors, a two-day C-level conference, and, another first for GSMA, a public “prosumer” day.

The heads of the two companies envision future partnership opportunities, as a result of their success supporting Mobile Asia Expo.

ITN International is a worldwide event analytics company with operations in China, France, the U.K. and the U.S.

Info Salons Group also has a global reach as a provider of technology solutions for exhibitions and events with offices in Sydney, Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong, China, London and Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
