1.0 WELCOME TO THE TRIBE
It’s hard to believe that we’re already on course for the third edition of We Are Africa – and lookhow far we’ve come! Over the last two years, we’ve watched our movement of African travelinnovators grow with us, both in size and ambition. Today, we proudly stand together as testament to the passion and love we all share for the continent. As we prepare to make more memories and forge new relationships this May, we want to welcome each of you to the 2016 tribe.
This year, we’re continuing our mission to demonstrate that Africa is Not One Story by looking tothe continent itself. With your help we’ll be replacing stories told about Africa with stories told byAfrica; in other words, we will tell the story Made In Africa. Discover more about the concept andhow you can get involved over on our website now.
In the spirit of writing new stories of Africa, for 2016 we’re relaunching the Conservation Lab in anexciting new ‘unconference’ format designed to spark fresh ideas. Bringing together key influencers from the world of conservation, the Conservation Lab will consist of two days of creative debate and hands-on participation in an effort to fight our way back in the conservation game.
The Innovation Awards return for 2016 to celebrate the most inventive and unexpected achievements defining the next chapter of African travel, whilst the Conference will once again see influential voices take to the stage to inspire our tribe. To stay in the know and discover all the latest action from the Awards, Conference and beyond, make sure to sign up to our blog, THE BEAT, and follow us on social media.
As our mission to rebrand Africa gains momentum, we’ve created The Guide as a handy lowdownon everything you need to know in the run-up and during the show itself. From appointments tothe app, registration to parties – read it and you’ll know exactly what’s going on (but for anythingyou’re not sure on, the We Are Africa team is always happy to chat!). We’ll be updating The Guideas we go along, so make sure to check that you have the latest version. So don’t wait until you’re en route to Cape Town – get stuck in and get excited!

3.2 ORGANISING YOUR MEETINGS
We Are Africa’s online appointment system allows you to pre-arrange up to 51 of the most business effective meetings, each lasting 20 minutes, with the leading Buyers and Press in African travel. Here’s how it works:
PHASE 1: CREATE A PROFILE | 25 JANUARY – 29 FEBRUARY
It is important that members have a good knowledge of all companies present before requestingmeetings, so we ask all attendees to create a company profile to share. Members receive adedicated password to access their personalised page on a secure website, allowing them toenter their company vital statistics and description. This is a key way to attract the attention ofour buyers before the show, so make sure your profile stands out from the crowd.
Please make sure you only input information for the company you have be invited to represent.Each profile is checked by a member of the We Are Africa team and any information that doesnot follow the regulations of your invite will be removed.
PHASE 2: CHOOSE YOUR APPOINTMENT PREFERENCES | 18 MARCH – 08 APRIL
In Phase 2 you will be able to view buyer and press profiles and use the different search criteria tofind the companies that offer the best match for your business. From these profiles each memberwill then need to select 76 preferences with whom they wish to have a meeting with and rankthese preferences in order of priority (1 being and 76 being lowest).
While selecting your 76 appointments it is important to refer to the “Attendees that have chosenme as a preference” list, as these buyers/press are interested in meeting you and are a goodstarting point for making your selections. It is important to select a full 76 preferences during thisphase to get the most desirable diary.
Mutual matches are prioritised, so it is important to include as many attendees who have selectedyou in your own preference selections. However, please note that if you include more than51 mutual matches in your preferences, this will mean non-mutual matches are unlikely to beconfirmed in your diary.
This phase also gives you the optional choice of excluding a limited number of attendees,meaning that you will not have a meeting scheduled with them. This is confidential and anyattendees you choose to exclude will not be informed. The main purpose of the exclusionsfunction is for you to exclude those well known attendees who you already work with, thereforereserving your meeting slots for new contacts and leaving your networking breaks to catch upwith existing clients.

NEXT: WE DO THE MATCHMAKING | 11 APRIL – 12 APRIL
Based on the preferences given by each delegate regarding their meetings, the We Are Africa online system uses a complex algorithm to generate client matches. Upon completion, all members will receive notification to view their personalised diary of pre-scheduled meetings online.
PHASE 3: ONLINE DIARY OPENS | 13 APRIL
During this phase members will be invited to view their personalised diary of pre-scheduled meetings online. During this phase you will no longer have access to the full buyer/press list, but you will be able to access all the profiles of your prescheduled appointments in your diary and all those attendees who are available during any empty meeting slots you may have.
Pre-scheduled meetings can also be supplemented in this phase. For any available slots in this phase you will be able to search for the available attendees and view their profiles. You can then send requests directly to these attendees via the system to meet during the available slot. This will send the attendee an email notification and they will then have the opportunity to accept or decline this request. If this is accepted it will be confirmed in your diary. You can send several requests for each meeting; however, the first meeting to be accepted will be the one that is confirmed in your diary.
Be sure to keep logging in during this phase to accept/decline any requests.
If you have any queries or issues with your diary, we urge you to make contact with the team as soon as possible so they can assist. Please contact: sophie@beyondluxury.com
3.3 MISSED MEETINGS
IMPORTANT: We Are Africa takes the issue of missed meetings very seriously, whether by Exhibitors, Buyers or Press. Unless you are able to provide a sufficient and relevant explanation for your absence, missing even one meeting may compromise yours and your company’s opportunity to participate in We Are Africa or in any Beyond Luxury Media events in the future. All missed appointments are recorded and monitored tightly – we ask that you report every missed appointment via the relevant forms, which can be dropped at the registration desk.

7.3 PUBLIC LIABILITY INSURANCE
ASSUMPTION OF RISK FOR EXHIBITORS AND COMPULSORY THIRD PARTY/PUBLIC LIABILITY INSURANCE
It should be understood by the Exhibitor that the nature of the facilities available, presence and circulation of large numbers of people, difficulty of effective supervision over the protection of large numbers of removable articles in stands and various other factors make it reasonable that each Exhibitor shall assume the risk of any injury, loss and/or damage to themselves or third party. It is a requirement for We Are Africa exhibitors and subexhibitors to have a public liability insurance cover for a minimum of £5million valid in South Africa for the duration of the show.
Unless you have asked us otherwise, We Are Africa has automatically added a Public Liability administration fee of GBP 189 to your invoice in order to ensure that you are added to the insurance policy of the show and therefore correctly covered.
This Public Liability Insurance will cover you if you or your business operation accidentally injures someone. It will also cover you if you damage third party property while at the exhibition center during the course of the event.
If you have any questions regarding the Public Liability Insurance please contact annabel@beyondluxury.com

The Exhibitor shall notify We Are Africa of the name and contact details of each stand sharer or product intended to be displayed or promoted at the show no later than 120 days prior to the start of the exhibition, to ensure that they conform to We Are Africa’s theme and show profile. We Are Africa is entitled to cancel the Contract if it considers, at its sole discretion, that the products or services promoted or showcased by the Exhibitor or any person sharing a stand do not fit the profile of the Exhibition and/or venue guidelines.
We Are Africa will always communicate with the contracted Exhibitor directly. It is the responsibility of the contracted Exhibitor to propagate all information received and to make sure that all delegates present at the show respect deadlines and the terms and conditions of the contract.
The Exhibitor shall be deemed to act as agent in respect of each stand sharer, who shall be bound by these terms accordingly. In the event that any stand sharer fails to comply with these terms or otherwise defaults in its obligations to Beyond Luxury Media Ltd, the Exhibitor shall be liable for all losses, liabilities and costs incurred by We Are Africa arising from such non-compliance or default.

10.1 VALUABLES
PLEASE NOTE: All valuable documents and personal items should be left in the safe of your hotel room from check-in. It is your responsibility to make sure that your valuables are safe at all times for the duration of your stay in Cape Town. Beyond Luxury Media Ltd. accepts no responsibility for loss or damage to personal belongings.
10.2 WHAT TO WEAR
Cape Town in May can be mild with little wind, with warm sunny days and cooler evenings during this autumnal season. However, there is always the possibility of some rain and temperatures in the evening can drop as low as 10°C or 11°C. It is advisable to wear light and comfortable clothing in the day and have a light jacket or similar with you. While the official dress is business casual, we like to think we’re less corporate conference and more safari chic!
Our elegant evening parties will see all our Exhibitors, Buyers and Press gather under one roof, so dress in your best attire and pull on your dancing shoes. Parties may take place outdoors, so remember to bring some extra layers.
10.3 INTERNET
WiFi will be provided free of charge to all participants; therefore the show will not provide an internet café. We believe that any ‘off time’ should be reserved for networking only.
10.4 FOOD AND BEVERAGE
Exhibitors are not allowed to bring any food or alcohol inside the stadium and We Are Africa events without the express permission of We Are Africa. Lunch and refreshments will be offered, on a complimentary basis, and with the view to offer maximum networking opportunities between Buyers and Exhibitors.
10.5 DISABILITY ACCESS
The Cape Town Stadium has elevators to take you to the different floors of the show. To access the show please access via the Main Gate and enter via Foyer A, Level 00.
If you need to have more information on Disability Access please contact Ceri Morris who will be happy to assist you: ceri@beyondluxury.com
