In addition to fostering ties between tourism professionals, the event also offered a platform for identifying and collaborating with new business partners, such as tour operators, airlines, social media influencers, and other stakeholders in the tourism industry. This approach aims to create a network of international partners and open new avenues for future cooperation.
