Industry heavyweights gather at ITB Asia
ITB Asia has revealed it will be adding new conference sessions to this year’s show that will take place in Singapore in October.
These include panel discussions on ‘Loyalty Programmes’, ‘Boutique Hotels’, ‘Women in Action’ and a ‘Business Travel Plenary Session’.
Organised by Messe Berlin (Singapore), ITB Asia is held from 19-21 October in Suntec Singapore Exhibition & Convention Centre, and promises a powerful speaker line-up for all four sessions which will take place across the three days of the show.
The conference programme is already the show’s largest line-up to date, with the addition of the inaugural TTG Travel Agent Conference, the Asia for Asia Conference organised by Singapore Tourism Board, as well as the second instalment of the successful ITB Asia Association Day.
“The conference component has always been a key element of ITB Asia’s knowledge-sharing platform and this year’s programme is all set to be even bigger and better with over 3000 minutes of high powered content, about 40% more compared to 2010,” said Nino Gruettke, Executive Director of ITB Asia.
