ASM Global has announced leadership changes for the International Convention Centre Sydney (ICC Sydney), Australia’s premier convention, exhibition and entertainment venue.
The venue’s current general manager, Adam Mather-Brown, has been appointed to the role of CEO, following the retirement of former CEO Geoff Donaghy after a 30-year career with ASM Global.
An accomplished professional, Mather-Brown has held leadership positions at five major convention centres over 26 years, 20 of which with ASM Global. As part of the leadership changes, ICC Sydney’s Beverley Parker takes on the position of deputy CEO in addition to her current role as the venue’s director of business development.
Parker also maintains her role within ASM Global (APAC) as director of marketing. ASM Global (APAC) chairman and chief executive Harvey Lister AM said the appointments were part of the organisation’s long-held succession plans and a natural progression for those experienced professionals who were part of the team to successfully launch and manage ICC Sydney for its initial 10 years of operations.
