We are excited to announce that Brad Mayne has joined ConventionSuite as Industry Business Process Expert. With his extensive experience and specialization in Venue Business Processes, Brad will play a key role in bringing valuable expertise to our organization. We look forward to the fresh perspectives and contributions he will bring to our team.
Brad, a native of Utah, will be responsible for evaluating ConventionSuite’s prospective business relationships within the Venue side of the organization. Known for his extensive experience in the industry, Brad has an impressive record of accomplishments. Early in his career, he worked at the Salt Palace and later went on to manage several prominent venues, including Arrowhead Pond of Anaheim (now Honda Center), American Airlines Center in Dallas, and MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. Additionally, he has served as President and CEO of the International Association of Venue Managers (IAVM) for the past seven years.
Brad expressed his enthusiasm, saying, “I’m thrilled to join the NewGen Team and contribute to the ConventionSuite Platform, designed specifically for the exhibition industry. I’m equally excited about NewGen’s latest product, developed for public venues, which fosters seamless online collaboration among users like show organizers, service contractors, designers, and others in the exhibition space. What excites me most is the platform’s open architecture, enabling users to custom-engineer solutions tailored to meet the unique and specific needs of each venue.”
We are thrilled to welcome Brad to our team and look forward to the innovative contributions he will make!
Rick Kostopoulos, President and CEO of NewGen Business Solutions, stated:
“Brad will keep us on our toes as we strive to become a leader in software business solutions within the venue sector. His integrity and pursuit of excellence are truly unmatched. We acknowledge the challenges ahead as we compete with established legacy software providers in the venue industry. However, ConventionSuite is well-positioned for success, thanks to the platform we have chosen and our extensive experience in the Event ERP industry. We are leaders in Event ERP, not followers. Our passion for the event and ERP industries will continue to drive us forward. Our goal is to deliver excellence and value to the venue industry, and we have already seen significant growth over the past eight years in both the general contractor and exhibit house segments. Our allied partners in these areas are experiencing exponential growth by eliminating data redundancies and refining their processes through modern cloud ERP technologies. This is an exciting time for all of us as we progress in ways we could never have imagined just a few years ago.”
