DTCM-UI Highlights |
SEPTEMBER 2010 |
In an exciting industry first Building The Best Luxury Travel Business is an innovative conference taking place entirely online, so you can benefit from ttgluxury’s knowledge and expertise on the subject from the comfort of your office!
In the age of social networking, online contact requests are the new handshakes. And at this seminal event you’ll have an entire database of travel associates at your fingertips. Registration is free and all you need to participate is an internet connection!
The emirate is no stranger to innovation, so Dubai Tourism was a natural partner for ttgluxury’s first virtual conference.
“Agent training and support remain critically important for Dubai Tourism. The destination is constantly reinventing itself and it is a challenge for agents to keep up to speed with what’s going on in Dubai. We will have the opportunity to “meet” a large number of agents who sell or have the potential to sell Dubai and share a whole host of information and resources that will help them,” said Ian Scott, director of the UK & Ireland office of Dubai Tourism and Commerce Marketing.
Taking place on September 7-8, register for the conference for free today and you’ll have instant access to us here at the DTCM, where we’re ready to answer any questions you may have.
