Dec. 8, 2010 - PRLog -- Timeshare and fractional multi-media information provider Perspective Magazine announces that the Canadian Resort Development Association (CRDA) will be participating as a GNEX 2011 Supporter during the First Annual Global Networking Expo.

"We’re delighted to lend our support to this event. Perspective Magazine has been an excellent friend of CRDA for several years now, and we see this as a terrific opportunity to leverage our excellent relationship with them to extend CRDA’s global reach," said Ross Perlmutter, president and CEO, CRDA.

May 11th-12th, 2011 will be the dates for GNEX 2011 and the Perspective Magazine Awards Gala, to be held at the world-renowned Atlantis Resort in Nassau, Bahamas.

Vacation ownership industry leaders from around the world will gather to use this innovative networking expo as a platform for business opportunities. Thanks to the global reach of Perspective Magazine’s four regional issues covering North America, Europe & Middle East, Asia Pacific and South Africa, this expo will be unlike any other industry event.

The two-day forum will feature thought-provoking and informative sessions, an exhibitor hall, creative workshops, networking sessions and areas for one-on-one business meetings. The expo will also include a welcome reception, open networking time and the Perspective Magazine Awards Gala dinner where industry nominees will vie for the coveted titles of “Best In Region” and “Best In The World” across a variety of categories.

With the advent of flexible, creative leisure products (such as “points” based programs, “floating time, floating space” systems, multi-destination vacation clubs, fractional ownership resorts, equity participation projects and condo hotels), CRDA has evolved to become the pre-eminent industry association responsible for overseeing all forms of vacation ownership in Canada. The association has successfully consulted to governments at all levels (Federal, Provincial and Municipal), and has been extremely instrumental in working with them to ensure the drafting of fair and equitable operational, taxation and protection policies that govern both association members and their consumers.

“We are privileged to have CRDA’s support of GNEX 2011 and look forward to welcoming those Canadian Developers and Service Providers that plan to attend and participate to our global event,” said Paul Mattimoe, president and CEO, Perspective Magazine.  

In addition to supporting GNEX 2011, CRDA will host its next annual industry conference, “The Resort Development Summit”, on April 27-29, 2011, at the Four Seasons Hotel in Vancouver, British Columbia.

Sponsors and supporters of GNEX 2011 include:

Absolute World, Dial an Exchange, Yucatan Holidays, Connex, First American Title Insurance Company, Interval International, Max Generation, RCI, First National Trustee Company, Ragatz Fractional Interest Conference, Australian Timeshare & Holiday Ownership Council (ATHOC), Canadian Resort Development Association (CRDA), Resort Development Organisation (RDO), Vacation Ownership Association of Southern Africa (VOASA) and Christel House International as Charity of Choice.

About CRDA
The Canadian Resort Development Association is an industry-based association that is dedicated to furthering the ownership-based resort and leisure industry, both at home and abroad. It was founded over 20 years ago as “the Resort Timesharing Council of Canada” in response to the public’s insatiable demand for more information about typical “fee simple” (or “deeded”) timeshare products.

The goals of the Association are to encourage and maintain a high standard of ethical conduct throughout the industry and to assist in the education of Canadian industry members toward an enhanced standard of professionalism. It is also our goal to assist in adjudicating consumer complaints that indicate failure by members or non-members to respect CRDA’s “Code of Standards and Ethics” and its objectives. We feel that we have made considerable progress in the past few years but in provinces where no legislation exists, we must continue to persevere.
