Our Global Strategy and Footprint

Our global strategy has evolved over time. We initially joined and then led the World Professional Conference Organizers Alliance (WPCOA). This unique grouping of experienced, professional conference organizers from 18 countries spanning the globe provides access to critical local market knowledge while creating a forum for sharing global standards, best practices, and ethics.

Leverage the World PCO Alliance’s (WPCOA) extensive experience in collaborating with national institutions, professional associations, and respective national governments across Europe and East Asia. WPCOA’s local member expertise provides on-the-ground perspectives into regulatory environments, government engagement processes, and partnership frameworks that influence the success of international scientific and professional initiatives. This ensures that findings are grounded not only in data, but also in practical knowledge of how national policies, institutional priorities, and association ecosystems interact within each country.

We chose to focus on the Global South where the largest global organizations are investing and where population growth and economic development are shaping the future of our planet. Here, the growing middle and professional class will create, join, and further trade associations and professional societies.

Launched together by Talley and association professional Jeffers Miruka in Kenya, African Association Management Company (AFAMCO) serves national, regional, and international associations. Together through AFAMCO, Talley and Jeffers provide associations with global experience, local connections, education and opportunities on the African continent.

As part of this joint venture, Jeffers expands his outreach and can share his expertise in association management as the Executive Director of the African Association of Agricultural Economists (AAAE) and the President of the African Society of Association Executives (AfSAE). On the Talley side, we’re able to bring our international expertise to the region and help both new and existing clients expand their efforts as well.

Additionally, Talley has recently partnered with The Iceberg Movement. The Iceberg empowers the global business events industry to be a transformative force for economic resilience, social progress, and environmental regeneration. We unite sectors, influence policy, and accelerate the measurement of impact to ensure meetings and events aren’t just gatherings, but catalysts for global change.

The Iceberg is a global movement uniting associations, destinations, governments, and event leaders who believe business events can change the world. It connects stories, data, and people to prove, and amplify, the power of events to create lasting impact.
