EAASI (European Association Amusement Supplier Industry) has retained Paul Grinnall and Gianni Chiari to organise the EuroAmusementShow (EAS) 2004.

Commenting on the appointments, Wieland Schwarzkopf, president of the association said: 'Paul Grinnall has worked with EAASI and the industry for many years and was instrumental in helping to create this fantastic event, so his knowledge and experience will be invaluable to the show. Gianni Chiari has been the operative secretary for EAASI since we created the association with the objective of organising one major European exhibition, so he understands the needs of our manufacturers and members. We are thrilled they have agreed to become part of the team and will continue to develop this ground-breaking event.'

While a date and venue is yet to be confirmed for the next European show, Grinnall said: 'We are committed to a show in Paris for 2004. You can be sure that if the industry wants EAS, we will find a way to deliver it'. Details: [email protected] or [email protected]
