The global leader in providing independent information for the timeshare and fractional industry will host its 1st Annual Global Networking Expo & Perspective Magazine Awards Gala at the world famous Atlantis Resort in the Bahamas.

Perspective Magazine has announced that the 1st Annual Global Networking Expo (GNEX 2011) and Perspective Magazine Awards Gala will be held May 11th-12th, 2011 at the spectacular Atlantis Resort on Paradise Island in Nassau, Bahamas.

This is not to be confused with a standard conference as the day and a half event is not filled with the stereotypical sessions. Instead, it will carry Perspective Magazine’s innovative approach to getting business done and concentrate on a structured schedule which will include a variety of cleverly designed networking sessions carefully balanced with free networking time, optional workshops and an exhibit hall.

The pinnacle of the event will be the culmination of a nine month search for the shared ownership industry’s elite and where worthy winners in an array of categories will be honored as the best of the best at a prestigious gala awards ceremony.

The Perspective Magazine Awards Program will run in conjunction with the four regional titles of the industry’s largest independent publication; North America, Europe & Middle East, South Africa and Asia Pacific. Entrants will compete for “Best In Region” as voted by any and all industry professionals, with the top nominees becoming Awards Finalists who will then be judged by an exclusive panel. At the Awards Gala in the Bahamas, the winners in each category for each region will be announced and one of them, in an industry first, will be crowned “Best In The World”.

“We have been asked many times why we do not have an awards program for Perspective Magazine. The answer has always been that when we felt we were ready to take the concept of awards programs within our industry to the next level, then we would introduce one,” said Paul Mattimoe, CEO, Perspective International. “We are thrilled to be able to deliver an event on a level that has not been attempted before, especially one that brings the best of our profession together from around the world to celebrate their success and excellence on a global stage”.

With the world’s greatest industry players in attendance at what is being slated as the highest profile and most glamorous event on the 2011 calendar, the quality of this event is expected to set a new standard for years to come.
