Visit Sunshine Coast is delighted to announce the appointment of Leisa Balic to the role of Business Events Coordinator.

Leisa brings extensive experience in event management, with a dynamic background spanning corporate banking, real estate, and hospitality. Her proven expertise in precinct activations, conferences, promotional roadshows, media events, and trade expos makes her a valuable addition to the team.

Visit Sunshine Coast’s Head of Business Events Ali Thompson welcomed Leisa’s appointment, emphasising her skills and experience in delivering impactful events.

“We are thrilled to have Leisa join the business events team. Her dedication, experience, and passion for crafting exceptional event experiences will be instrumental in further positioning the Sunshine Coast as a premier business events destination. As we continue to see significant growth in the sector, Leisa’s expertise will help us deliver outstanding opportunities for conference and incentive planners looking for fresh and innovative event experiences.”

Leisa’s appointment comes at an exciting time for the Sunshine Coast, a region that is rapidly emerging as a premier destination for business events. As a host city for the 2032 Brisbane Olympic and Paralympic Games, the region is undergoing a major transformation, with significant investment in infrastructure, including new event venues, enhanced transportation networks, and world-class accommodation offerings.

“The Sunshine Coast is one of the fastest growing Australian corporate destinations, and I’m thrilled to join the Visit Sunshine Coast team,” Leisa said.

“We’re in a fabulous coastal location with great connection through the Sunshine Coast Airport. And with other major investments being made like the airport expansion, Maroochydore City Centre development, Sunshine Coast University hospital expansion, Bruce Highway upgrades, and more, we’re expecting the Sunshine Coast to go from strength to strength, attracting even more corporates to the region for both work and leisure.”

The Sunshine Coast’s unique blend of relaxed coastal charm and cutting-edge facilities makes it an attractive choice for business event planners seeking to inspire, engage, and connect delegates in a fresh and immersive setting.

Leisa’s role will be pivotal to attract high-value conferences and corporate meetings and enhance the region’s reputation as a boutique business events destination. Her passion for excellence and proven track record in event management will contribute to the continued success of the Sunshine Coast’s business events sector.
