Global Tourism Forum is an initiative of London based World Tourism Forum Institute. Starting from 2020, World Tourism Forum Institute’s events will be entitled as Global Tourism Forum.
Our meetings represent a one-of-a-kind opportunity for participants to grow their business networks, and for attendees to discover more about the destination’s rich and diversified offerings. You can have special business meetings with tourism professionals, governmental and non-governmental organization executives, domestic and foreign operators, travel agencies, tourism organizations, high-level executives of hotel groups, etc. These can be sponsored by local stakeholders who wish to raise their profile, and used as break-out “workshops” and formidable networking opportunities by those who are leading panel discussions.
These meetings will help participants make direct contact with potential partners and world leaders in order to learn about the latest news and trends in tourism, promote their business, and share experiences.
