ChinaContact has partnered with the Travel Distribution Summit, Asia in Singapore in 2012
See full agenda here
To understand how China’s growing clout is dramatically affecting the tourism sector, we need to observe the changes that South East Asia has been going through over the last 5 years or so. China is now the top market for most SE Asian countries and the top spenders in most of the Asian countries (all the way to Australia and New Zealand too!). Products and services no longer need to be exclusively tailored to Americans or Europeans – they are now being customised to Chinese tastes and preferences. And Asia’s experience will be replicated in North America in Europe in the near future (provided we don’t shut the gates but actually invite visitors to spend their money here with easier visas and better, targeted marketing and promotion).
So to help you along this process of seeing with your own eyes how China is changing the global tourism industry (starting in Asia) and may indeed be the saving grace of us all, we are passing along a generous discount to our readers.
It is a 20% discount (worth over $400) for the Travel Distribution Summit Asia, taking place in Singapore in May. With major companies from Asia and international speakers including from China, this is an excellent education and networking opportunity. The Summit this year will include dedicated discussions and workshops on China aimed at all levels of familiarisation with the market. So it is a great entry point but also a good step on the way to implementing your China and Asia strategy. I am planning to hold a market entry workshop focused on how to utilize online marketing and social media to build brand and grow revenues in China.
