The Visual Media Association (VMA) is pleased to formally announce its 2025 Annual General Meeting (AGM), proudly hosted by industry partner RICOH Australia. This year’s AGM marks a pivotal event in the Association’s calendar, reinforcing the VMA’s ongoing commitment to transparency, strategic governance, and industry advancement across our financial reporting.

The AGM will take place at 6:00pm on Thursday, 31st July 2025, at the RICOH Australia offices in North Ryde, New South Wales. Members, stakeholders, and invited guests will gather for an evening commencing with the evening’s formalities followed by networking.

Kellie Northwood, Chief Executive Officer of the Visual Media Association, emphasised the significance of the AGM as more than a statutory obligation, instead characterising it as a moment to celebrate achievements and engage in the future trajectory of the Association and the wider industry.

“Our Annual General Meeting provides a platform to share the strong financial performance and national program delivery the Association has achieved over the past twelve months,” commented Northwood. “It is also an opportunity for us to collectively assess the strategic focus and governance that will shape our next phase of growth.”

The AGM comes on the back of a strong year for the Association, with ongoing national advocacy, membership growth, and skills and training initiatives rolled out across the sector. Members will have the opportunity to hear updates on these milestones and engage directly with the Board and Executive team on key initiatives planned for the 2025–2026 period.

In addition to the formal proceedings, the AGM will offer attendees valuable networking opportunities within an industry-centric environment. With support from RICOH Australia, the event will bring together a diverse cross-section of the industry from paper to print, signage to publishing, packaging to mail, design to distribution sectors.

“We are proud to host this important industry event in collaboration with RICOH Australia, a valued partner and longstanding contributor to our sector. Partnerships like these are essential as we continue to strengthen the Association’s relevance and impact,” concluded Northwood.

The venue is easily accessible, with North Ryde Metro station a 13 minute walk from the building and on-site parking available for guests. Attendees are advised to proceed to Level 1 on arrival.
