ETR spent five very busy days at the global tourism industry’s leading business forum, and these five days translated into lots of opportunities, new contacts, new projects and good business connections into new markets.
At FITUR you also meet people spontaneously and unexpectedly, and that leads to great new ideas and sources of business. Also, the presence of more than 5,300 different media is evidence of the level of expectation this event creates in the travel and experience industry, and many therefore take advantage of this extensive media coverage to promote their destinations, attractions, experiences or business. Also long after the event.

FITUR is Business
The tourism industry is a major driver of global and local economy. In addition, it has the potential to improve the quality of life of communities. Through the selected challenge, FITUR looks for best practices that can have positive effects on communities, groups and populations who did not previously benefit from travel activity.
The team at FITUR will help you to make the most of your participation and reach professionals with a high level of decision-making capability in any tourism segment: 38% chairmen/general managers, 34% marketing/sales/commercial managers and 21% sales/consultant executives.
FITUR is a also unique forum for promoting brands, presenting new products, learning about the latest trends and filling your agenda with new contacts and opportunities.
