The council and its operations committee were instrumental in recruiting international members and developing quality products and services. IAAPA also established the IAAPA Hall of Fame, with amusement-industry pioneers its first class of inductees. </p><p>The following year, the 73rd annual convention and trade show in <a href="/wiki/Orlando,_Florida" title="Orlando, Florida">Orlando, Florida</a> had over 19,000 attendees. The IAAPA Expo was the largest amusement-industry exhibition in the world, offering trends in amusement and arcade equipment, food, beverage, park technology and entertainment. </p><p>In 2000 the association worked to counter negative publicity following high-profile amusement-ride incidents and surrounding amusement safety, publicizing the industry's overall safety record. It established a ride-incident reporting system for its U.S. facilities with rides (releasing the initial results in 2003 through the <a href="/wiki/National_Safety_Council" title="National Safety Council">National Safety Council</a>), and helped facilitate independent scientific reviews of ride forces in 2002-03 indicating the inherent safety of rides for the general public. In 2000, IAAPA opened its first full-time overseas office (IAAPA Europe) in <a href="/wiki/Brussels" title="Brussels">Brussels</a>. </p><p>The organization acquired the Asian Amusement Expo (AAE) in 2003, but canceled the event because of the <a href="/wiki/Severe_Acute_Respiratory_Syndrome" class="mw-redirect" title="Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome">SARS</a> outbreak in Asia. IAAPA maintained its focus on industry safety that year, establishing an international standards harmonization group to implement universal ride-safety criteria. In 2004, it helped spearhead the adoption of the <a href="/wiki/ASTM_International" title="ASTM International">ASTM International</a> amusement-ride design and manufacture standard and the European standard for amusement machinery and structures. </p><p>Two years later, IAAPA joined the Travel Industry Association of America to produce "The Economic Impact of Domestic and Overseas Travelers Who Visit Amusement/Theme Parks and Other Attractions in the United States" on the importance of amusement, theme parks and other attractions to U.S. tourism and its wider economy. The association extended membership to casinos and resorts, since a number of facilities had incorporated amusement and entertainment features. To promote park safety, IAAPA made its ride incident reporting system mandatory for U.S. members and supported Europarks' efforts to implement a similar system for its members. IAAPA encouraged voluntary ride reporting by its global partners, supplying background materials. </p><p>In 2007 the association opened a new office in Europe with expanded programs and services and increased collaboration with Europarks on ride-safety reporting, and held its annual senior-level training program (the Institute for Executive Education) to the <a href="/wiki/Wharton_School_of_the_University_of_Pennsylvania" class="mw-redirect" title="Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania">Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania</a>. At its Attractions Expo, the association unveiled its institute for emerging leaders (later renamed the Institute for Attractions Managers) to recruit candidates for senior-level positions. </p><p>The following year, IAAPA acquired the Euro Attractions Show (EAS). It held its first Middle East safety conference in <a href="/wiki/Dubai" title="Dubai">Dubai</a> in February, and had its inaugural Attractions Safety Awareness Week to enhance understanding of the industry's safety practices and record in June. </p><p>In 2010, the IAAPA Foundation was created as a <a href="/wiki/501(c)(3)_organization" title="501(c)(3) organization">501(c)(3) organization</a> to fund the development of education programs and information resources for the global attractions industry.
