The World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) Global Summit in Japan begins in two weeks with a host of world-class speakers confirmed to contribute.
The WTTC annual Global Summit is the pre-eminent event in the global tourism calendar each year, bringing together nearly 1,000 industry and government leaders from around the world.
The event will tackle some of the most pressing issues facing tourism and to set the agenda for the future health of the industry. This year, the Global Summit takes place in Tokyo/Sendai from April 16th-19th 2012 with sessions surrounding the theme - ‘A dynamic industry in turbulent times’. It is fitting that the Global Summit is taking place in Japan just over a year after the tragic events of March 11th 2011 and WTTC is choosing to show solidarity on behalf of the entire tourism industry with both the country and the region affected by holding part of the Global Summit in Sendai City, Tohoku Region. WTTC president David Scowsill said: “This is shaping up to be a truly great Global Summit with contributions from some of the biggest names in the tourism industry and beyond
