Packed Studios all through the day! Our Exhibiting partners clocked 2000+ one-to-one meetings and more during the open floor sessions. In addition to our Heritage & Urban, South & Waterways, Wilderness & Wellness, Himalayas, Travel Concepts, Relais & Château & Taj (boutique) Studios, we introduced a much overdue dedicated studio for our partners from Sri Lanka, Bhutan, and Nepal - and what a success that was!

 

Très 2024 saw a fabulous turnout of 65+ Overseas Operators and 35+ niche Indian travel designers ensuring our 70 Exhibiting partners barely had a breather with undisturbed, 15-minute one-to-one meetings. With the floor opening to over 100 Destination Management Companies, travel agents, and designers post-lunch, we had double meetings and networking in full swing.

 

Our curated afternoon Très Ignite Sessions of insightful knowledge-sharing presentations 'Interweaving Textile & Craft Heritage' on Gujarat's Kachch tribe - their relationship with each other, the forest, and the environment led by Shilpa Sharma. Vinay of Gully Tours spoke on how innovative tours in Bangalore are covering the city's fascinating facets, responsibly and sustainably.

 

We had a highly constructive (and might we add, entertaining!) fireside chat 'Clash of the Titans' where industry leaders such as Dipak Deva, MD of SITA, Distant Frontiers, and TCI, Shilendran of CGH Earth, Reana Sachdeva, Founder of Travel Arena, moderated by Emma Horne of Emma Horne Travels engaged in a conversation with each other and the audience on the region's evolving travel narrative and how to navigate the travelscape behind the scenes. A panel session by UP Tourism touched upon the potential of off-beat itineraries and how to promote them right. Adding to these, was the informative and informal chat - 'Unveiling Bhutan', uncovering its hidden challenges and new exciting developments.

​

We aren't all work and no play. We let our hair down to celebrate both days with our partners Sula Vineyards, Bira and Diageo! We couldn't have achieved a vibe such as this without the support of our amazing partners - Uttar Pradesh Tourism, Madhya Pradesh Tourism, and Rajasthan Tourism.​ ​
