The International Inflatable Products and Games Association (IIP&GA) has announced it will merge with the International Association for the Leisure and Entertainment Industry (IALEI).
According to IALEI executive director, Tracy Sarris, the organisation has made a commitment to expand its services to meet the needs of the various niche businesses that are part of the FEC community.
To address some of the needs of the inflatables industry, IALEI will offer an inflatable certification program and educational tracks targeted to this speciality at Fun Expo and during Fun Academy in September.
It is also looking to develop a group insurance program specific to the outdoor and rental inflatable community.
