EESA President – Mr Felix Remedios – is optimistic about the JWC’s potential to breathe positive winds of change within the event industry, as he expresses, “The Joint Working Committee between KEMA and EESA is a monumental achievement that exemplifies the commitment and intent of agencies and technical service providers to come together as one united industry and work cohesively for the mutual benefit of both fraternities. We view this as the first significant step in standardizing the event industry in Karnataka, and consequently moving towards consolidating events and entertainment as a government recognized structured industry. We thank KEMA for sharing our enthusiasm and extending their unequivocal support in making the JWC possible, and we look forward to this initiative acting as a beacon of inspiration for the entire events industry across India.”

EESA has also voiced the sentiments of the event equipment rental service and event technical service community, as they announced a price correction in the cost of equipment rental & technical services for live events, along with a ‘no compromise’ stance on miscellaneous costs which encompasses service components like transportation & logistics, Manpower, Crew Welfare, and Engineer Fees.

“These announcements were made by EESA on behalf of the entire event equipment rental services and technical services community, with the view to foster a more secured future for our fraternity; and have been done so after careful deliberation of the on-going situation. There’s been a conscious endeavour to minimize the impact of these decisions on our clients i.e., the event management community and our end clients; and we deeply appreciate the fact that our partners and clients have respected the sincere reasons driving these decisions and have continued to actively engage in working together on planning for future events. We are thankful for their consistent support in empowering us to maintain the highest level of commitment in providing the very best technical expertise and infrastructure for events across the board” asserts EESA Vice-President, Santana Davis.

These steps initiated by EESA have garnered support from majority of members from the technical services community, and the event management community – and looks to usher in a new era of a more cohesive, structured, and secure business ecosystem.
