The fifth edition of the EXCELTUR Tourism Leadership Forum co-organised by Exceltur and World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO), with the special collaboration of the World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC), will be held on January 19, 2010 (on the eve of FITUR) at the Palacio de Congresos de Madrid. The Forum will discuss the effects of the current crisis and keys to economic recovery at the global, European and Spanish levels.
With the title ‘Prospects and Challenges of Tourism's Recovery for 2010/2011’, this Forum acquires a tri-level dimension for the first time as it addresses issues from the global, European and Spanish perspectives with list of speakers and programme of topics of international scope, thus constituting an event that is unprecedented in Spain and will probably be unsurpassed in Europe in 2010. Taleb Rifai, Secretary-General Ad Interim, UNWTO and Sebastián Escarrer, Chairman, Exceltur and Vice-President of Sol Meliá, recently presented the fifth edition of the EXCELTUR Tourism Leadership Forum in Madrid. |
