O’Connor will also head up ASP Events' communications team based in its London office.
He said: "I have known ASP Events for a number of years as a supplier to the events industry and it’s great to be on-board to develop its products further.
"Websites are the shop front for any visitor or exhibitor thinking of attending an event, so it is paramount that ASP Events are on the leading edge, providing the kind of high calibre products that will allow organisers to maximise the decision making processes to attend an event and beyond."
O’Connor’s 15 years of experience includes five years as marketing director at Centaur Exhibitions, on shows including the National Home Improvement Show and Marketing Week Live, as well as nine years at Haymarket Exhibitions, where he was group marketing manager.
ASP Events chief executive Arran Coole said: "I’m delighted to welcome Nolan to the ASP Events team. This is an exciting time in the company’s 15-year history and his experience from an organiser point of view will be crucial in keeping us ahead of the curve to ensure we are meeting the demands of our clients."
