What will be the holiday destinations and the tourism products of tomorrow? How will IT in tourism develop? What roles will safety and environment issues play in the future? And what are the answers that management consultants can give to these questions?
This will be the general theme debated by leading experts at a seminar entitled The Future of Consulting, which takes place during the ITB Convention Market Trends & Innovations on Friday, 11 March 2005 from 2.30 to 4.30 p.m. in Hall 7.1.b. The event is coorganised by the ITB Berlin and Equator International & Meetings World (1969) Associates. This new initiative by the ITB Berlin aims to encourage discussion between management consultants and the tourism industry. Messe Berlin will broaden its commitment even further at the ITB 2006 by organising its own and lounge concept.(ITB Consulting Room
