BIE Paris Third Gentlemen's Meeting Held

The BIE in Paris has held the Third Gentlemen's Meeting on candidature for the 2017 and 2020 Expositions, with delegates from these bids presenting their progress reports.

Whilst bid lodgement for 2020 has now closed, with 5 bidding cities, there are still a few weeks before bids for 2017 close. Newcastle, Australia, however, has yet to put in a bid for 2017.

We hope that Newcastle can put forward its bid for 2017 soon, and that we can see another International Exposition in Australia.
