The China Visitors Summit (CVS) with TravTalkME as media partner, scheduled for September 5-6 in Dubai, is set to provide a pivotal platform for hotel properties across the UAE. This unique event will welcome over 120 Chinese travel agents, tour operators, MICE managers, corporate travel planners, wholesalers, luxury agents, and media representatives. This year, the summit has expanded its program to include an extensive schedule of hotel site inspections. These sessions are designed to give Chinese buyers a comprehensive, firsthand look at the participating hotel properties’ amenities and services. Groups of buyers, typically ranging from 20 to 25 individuals per session, will have the exclusive opportunity to be hosted by hotels, offering them an in-depth onsite experience. Since its inception in 2008, CVS has successfully attracted highly qualified Chinese travel buyers from Mainland China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong. These paying delegates actively seek to establish connections with local travel suppliers including hotels, attractions, museums, shopping centers, and other destinations. Unlike traditional conferences and exhibitions, CVS facilitates direct, experiential interactions between travel buyers and suppliers at the actual hotel properties. This immersive approach is unparalleled in its effectiveness for showcasing hotel offerings directly to decision-makers in the travel industry. There is no better way to market and promote your hotel property than to demonstrate its value firsthand to this select group of influential buyers.
