ITE Develops Central European Travel Trade Week
ITE Travel Exhibitions is developing a Central European Travel Trade Week in early February which will incorporate several significant Central European travel industry activities and will culminate in the 11th edition of Holiday World 2002. The week is slated from the 5th - 10th February 2002 and is a co-operative effort between the Central European Countries Travel Association (cecta), TTG Czech Republic, COT, Meeting Professionals International (MPI) and ITE to bring the international travel industry together for a week to focus on Central Europe. The week will commence with the launch of the Central European Chapter of MPI on February 5th. Professionals within the CE travel industry recognize the enormous potential of the MICE sector and are keen to develop international business and educational links via MPI. On 6th February ITE Travel Exhibitions and cecta will jointly organise the 2nd annual Central European Travel Conference, which will take place at the Intercontinental Hotel, Prague. This year the theme of the conference will focus on how to bring MICE business to Central Europe. Confirmed speakers include Tim Zagat, CEO of NYC & Co., Mike Moore Jr. of AOL/Time Warner Europe, SITE, MPI, and many other thought leaders in the industry. Holiday World 2002 will begin for trade only on February 7th and 8th. Year-on-year this specialist travel trade exhibition has developed to become the Premier Tourism Industry Event for the Central European region specifically targeting the Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia, Slovenia and Poland. Destinations from Austria to Dubai and Malaysia to Montenegro will be exhibiting as they tap into the great rewards that can be gained from working with the Central European travel and tourism industry. A final event to be held during the Central European Travel Trade Week is the Czech Travel Awards ceremony. The ceremony will take place during Holiday World and will involve the presentation of awards to companies and individuals who have been voted for by the readers of TTG Czech Republic. Hertz car rental company are once again supporting the awards with their category sponsorship of the Best Travel Agent.
