Destinations, tourism products and travel tech services from around the world have confirmed their presence at WTM Latin America 2015, which will take place between 22 and 24 April in Sao Paulo at Expo Centre Norte, alongside the 43rd Braztoa Business Meeting.
With 10% more floor space compared to 2014, the third edition of the international event that last year generated US$341 million of business is looking to be the biggest and best yet.
The increased floor space will host five sectors: Brazil, Latin America, the World, Braztoa and Global Village which will include a more prominent area for Travel Tech this year.
Gathered in the Global Village, many multinational exhibitors have guaranteed their presence at the fair, such as new exhibitor B-Around, the Portuguese online tour company.
Other tour operator’s such as Delta Tours and Travel that have offices throughout the United States and Canada, and Vanilla Tours, a leading global supplier of accommodation, which operates in the business-to-business market (B2B) will both be exhibiting for the first time.
Indian Flip Care Meditours, working in partnership with the Asian Medical Tourism Industry will be exhibiting for the first time to promote health and wellness tourism, which was a particularly popular sector at WTM in London last year.
Among the new Brazilian exhibitors that will be in the Global Village, highlighting their offers and hotel reservations will be the Web Business Company that develops technology for the hospitality industry, such as online booking systems for hotel websites, travel agencies and tour operators, as well as monitoring social networks, among other services.
