EVENTS AND INITIATIVES
BITB is the travel and tourism industry industry platform, aimed at senior professionals, serious networking, and knowledge sharing across verticals. BITB has brought about an extension of the industry at large, bringing new-age drivers within our fold, and extending the outreach for the country’s tourism industry.
Since October 2016 we have held 19 conclaves on innovative subjects, inducting new faces, ideas and scope. We continue to cover a wide gamut of verticals examining challenges and opportunities for the growth of business. These Conclaves have created a new synergy among industry stakeholders for a meaningful interaction and exchange of ideas.
We continue to innovate, as we have done over the last 45+ years. With a magazine on tourism in 1975, we were the first in India with a B2B event, in 1994, for over 18 years with a track record of hosting the largest number of foreign buyers in India.
After a year-long pause, as the country, and indeed the world, slowly but steadily emerges out of the pandemic crisis, we begin in some measured tones, to come back to physical events. As BITB redefines its space, our emphasis will be more on business, with a strong companion event with stands and buyer-seller component. Our feedback is that these BITB events have become a part of the stimulus in the business of travel and tourism in our country, and our region.
