Mr. Preecha S. Chen, President, Reed Exhibitions, Greater China and Mr. Allen Ha, Chief Executive Officer, AsiaWorld-Expo announced the 2011 fair at a joint press conference on 18 May 2009.

Reed Exhibitions, organiser of the Asian Aerospace International Expo and Congress, has once again selected Hong Kong and AsiaWorld-Expo for its 2011 global aviation event.  Following the events in 2007 and 2009, the announcement of the 2011 Expo marks the third time this bi-annual event will be held at AsiaWorld-Expo.  The decision is a strong endorsement of both Hong Kong’s pivotal role as a regional business hub, and the venue’s on-going commitment to quality, service and value.

“A key aspect of Asian Aerospace is bringing our exhibitors and delegates face-to-face with the right people. The combination of Hong Kong with its unique access to regional business opportunities and AsiaWorld-Expo with its superb infrastructure and convenient location make it the natural meeting place for companies with a global vision,” explained Mr. Paul Beh, President, Reed Exhibitions – Asia/Pacific.

Working with the local community, 150 positions were on offer at AsiaWorld-Expo’s first Job Fair.

On 2 June, more than 300 job-seekers gathered at a first-of-its-kind local job fair, organised by AsiaWorld-Expo in partnership with local community organisations. Full-time, part-time and temporary positions were on offer across a range of sectors, including security personnel, F&B and kitchen staff, sales cashiers and cleaning staff.

“With such overwhelming response from the public, we are already considering hosting more similar fairs later in the year,” announced Mr. Lau Hak Wah, Chief Operating Officer, AsiaWorld-Expo Management Limited. “Also, as the area surrounding the Hong Kong International Airport further develops into a leading business and trading hub supported by infrastructure projects such as the Hong Kong-Macao-Zhuhai bridge, AsiaWorld-Expo is well positioned to lead the growth of the local exhibition and conference market,” Mr. Lau added.

The fair was organised with the support of the Home Affairs Department of HKSAR, Hong Kong Outlying Islands Women's Association, and Hong Kong Sheng Kung Hui Tung Chung Integrated Services.
