AMERICAS – Organisers of the third edition of WTM Latin America have opened registration for the 2015 edition of the show’s International Hosted Buyers’ programme. The event, run by Reed Travel Exhibitions, takes place 22-24 April, at the Expo Center Norte in São Paulo, and will offer the opportunity for up to 150 qualified buyers interested in Latin America to be hosted.
Successful applicants will be offered a three-day tailored programme of activity that will enable new business to be agreed.
At WTM Latin America 2014, around 3,000 pre-scheduled meetings took place, which organisers claim, led to US$341m worth of business deals being generated between 1,300 exhibitors and 900 buyers.
To be selected as a Hosted Buyer, applicants must meet certain criteria as well as having a key interest in Latin American products and business potential.
Deadline for completed forms, available from the event website, is 13 February.
Lawrence Reinisch, Exhibition Director for WTM Latin America said: “WTM Latin America is an event that promotes Latin America to the world and the world to Latin America. It is known as the most international B2B tourism event for the industry in the Americas.”
