NEW YORK, Aug. 13, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Colin Cowie, whose name has become synonymous with exceptional high end events for celebrity clientele, from Oprah Winfrey, Jennifer Aniston to Kim Kardashian-West, will be a keynote speaker at the 2018 Event Planner Expo held on October 2nd and 3rd by EMRG Media. Joining Colin as a keynote speaker is Barbara Corcoran, one of the sharks on ABC's Shark Tank. Colin brings to the Expo decades of experience from his time as a leader in the elite event world, while Barbara will speak to the audience about how to build a brand. 

Colin's unprecedented work has gained him worldwide recognition and a devoted global following. In addition to his impressive events resume, he is a beloved TV personality, interior designer, lifestyle guru, and published author. 

2018 marks Colin's fourth year attending The Event Planner Expo, where he has been honored as a keynote speaker before. "He's an absolute true leader in the events industry," says Jessica Stewart, Vice President of Marketing, EMRG Media. "Each year he generously shares with the public new industry insight in a fresh and compelling way." 

For the first time ever, EMRG Media has extended their Expo to two full days, a decisive move in an effort to cultivate more networking opportunities for attendees. This also means more opportunities to connect with influential figures like Colin, as well as over 3000 other event planners that will be in attendance. The Expo is an invaluable opportunity that brings together the great minds that make up both the New York and national event world, giving attendees a chance to be exposed to top venues and services that will undoubtedly elevate their future events. 

Colin has always championed the notion of being kind and courteous to everyone in the event industry, no matter what their title or rank. "His genuine belief in treating others with kindness makes him a terrific figure to lead important discussions and shed light on every aspect of the event industry," says Stewart.  

He will be speaking on both days of The Event Planner Expo, and will be hosting an exclusive luncheon on October 2nd that will bring together industry heavyweights for an intimate discussion on the changing tides of the event world.  In the VIP Networking Lounge relationships will develop and people will trade ideas with other industry heavyweights, CEOs, and global corporate decision makers. "This event is the cream of the crop," says Cowie of The Event Planner Expo. "It doesn't get any better."
