IELA elects new chairman and board members
In its efforts to be well equipped for the new now, the International Exhibition Logistics Association (IELA) welcomes new leaders joining top decision-making positions. IELA greets new members on its board of management (BOM) and committee and announces the appointment of the new IELA chairman.
The newly-formed IELA 2020-2021 BOM welcomes four new faces this year for a two-year term, all recognised leaders in the exhibition logistics industry and already involved in the association’s activities: Matthias Dornscheidt, vice president global fairs & exhibitions, Schenker Deutschland, Alexandra Erdmann, CEO, Swiss Expo Logistics, Daniel Mithran, director, JIM Project & Expo Logistics and Jacqui Nel, director, EF-GSM South Africa.
Guido Fornelli was elected as the new chairman for a period of two years. Fornelli has been involved with the association since 1992 and joined the IELA BOM for the first time in 2003. He said: “I’m honoured to be the chairman of our association and look forward to starting work with the new elected board. It is amazing to see that distance didn’t dampen, but even increased, our enthusiasm for involvement and participation in IELA life during the last months." (mw)
