Experts, researchers and leading representatives of the industry will present their ideas and offer inspiration to visitors for new approaches, projects and products. These will be substantiated by the latest market analyses, examples of best practices and exclusive surveys by the global tourism industry. Many tourism companies are focusing more and more on intelligent and sustainable systems for managing tourism flows and including them in their strategies and products in view of the rising CO2 levels and over-consumption of resources and their effects on eco-systems and nature. The ITB Berlin Convention has comprehensive information on the current situation, the progress being made and the many deficits and mistakes that need to be addressed.
