ENTER 2013 – a truly global eTourism conference with attendees from all over the world

The conference delegates will be an interesting mix of people from academia, industry, government, and other organizations. Many of the attendees will be professors and members of very well-know universities, such as the Temple University in the US, Hong Kong Polytechnic University and Bournemouth University in the UK.

The ENTER 2013 conference, taking place in the Congress Convention Centre in Innsbruck, Austria from 22-25 January 2013, is proud to welcome conference delegates from more than 30 countries from around the globe.

The ENTER Conference, which is organised by the International Federation for Information Technology in Travel and Tourism (IFITT), offers a worldwide and unique forum for attendees from academia, industry, government, and other organizations to actively exchange, share, and challenge state-of-the-art research and industrial case studies on the application of information and communication technologies to travel and tourism.

The conference is especially known for its outstanding international scope. This year, ENTER 2013 is expecting speakers and guests from more than 30 countries from Europe, Asia, Africa and North America. Although attendees from European countries like Austria, Switzerland, Italy, UK and Spain will represent the majority of the conference delegates, ENTER 2013 is also very much looking forward to meet its guests from far distant nations such as South Korea, China, Thailand, Canada, Australia and the USA.

The conference delegates will be an interesting mix of people from academia, industry, government, and other organizations. Many of the attendees will be professors and members of very well-know universities, such as the Temple University in the US, Hong Kong Polytechnic University and Bournemouth University in the UK. Other guests and speakers will represent their national tourism organisations like Tourism Australia, Switzerland Tourism, Kenya Tourist Board and Tourism Portugal.

ENTER 2013 is also proud to announce a great number of keynote speakers who are mostly members from internationally known organisations, such as Aoife Desmond from Facebook, Oliver Gradwell from Travelbloggersunite, James van Thiel from Google and Marco Fanton from Sol Melia Hotels and Resorts. Further renowned companies, represented at ENTER 2013, are Tripadvisor, Expedia, Kuoni, SE1 Media and Holidaycheck. All speakers and their presentations can be found in the draft ENTER programme.

IFITT President Professor Dimitrios Buhalis said  it is very impressive to have such an interest from people from all over the world in connecting and engaging with the global eTourism community. We are looking forward to a multinational conference and believe that this will contribute to sharing the global knowledge about information and communication technologies in travel and tourism.”
