Our Profile
Who is
Diversified?
The short answer is that we are a vibrant exhibitions company, committed to creating truly exceptional events where people can meet face to face to do business.
The long answer is a story of
entrepreneurial spirit and on-going success through dedication and hard
work.
Diversified Exhibitions Australia
was founded in 1982, under the name Australian Exhibitions Services (AES). AES
established a proud record of more than 400 successful events, each specifically
created to provide visitors with unique and exciting experiences while
generating quality sales leads and a great return on investment for exhibitors.
In 2000, Diversified was acquired by
a US based company, Diversified Business Communications, and became part of a
global exhibitions network. Since then, Diversified has experienced
unprecedented revenue and profitability increases, achieved through new show
launches, event acquisitions and solid organic
growth.
We're leaders of a big industry. Every year in Australia, over 10,000 businesses promote themselves to more than 5 million people at 360 exhibitions. That's a total economic impact of almost $2.3 billion! For our part, we own and run more than 30 of the biggest industry-specific trade and consumer shows in Australia every year.
Diversified is currently located in
St Kilda Road,
Melbourne, employs 60 staff and
operates throughout Australia.
