The FITUR Workshops formula, including both INVESTOUR for the Americas and the Third Hosted Buyers Workshop, are witnessing some excellent levels of participation, based on their effectiveness and the profitable results achieved in previous years. In this respect, a total of 130 buyers from 28 countries will hold meetings with the 250 companies that have signed up for this forum next 31st January, within the framework of the International Tourism Trade Fair, an event organised by IFEMA that is due to take place between 30th January and 3rd February 2013 at Feria de Madrid. During the last staging of FITUR, some 1,800 appointments took place.
