Agenda & Speaker Presentations
The topics on the ARC2008 agenda were chosen in response to feedback from delegates who attended ARC2007. They wanted to see representation from airlines and concessionaires, and to spend more time on key subjects such as Supply Management, Environment & Sustainability, Retail Innovation, and New Media Technology.
Accordingly, at this year’s ARC we offered an excellent cross-section of speakers from within and outside the industry. They openly shared their views, experiences and recommendations, and the vast majority of delegates found the presentations insightful and helpful to their own businesses. However – as with all conferences – no one subject is going to be relevant to every single individual.
Due to the high number of speakers involved this year, it was logistically impossible to arrange the type of breakout sessions which proved so successful last year. Our challenge for ARC2009 is to find a means of reintroducing breakout and workshop periods to encourage useful debate and teamwork, without compromising the diversity of subjects covered by speakers.
Within this website, we have provided a summary of each speaker session and if required, you can request a copy of the speaker presentation for your own use.
