Harsha Krishnan, Strategic Development Director at Pacific World commented, “Peru is rapidly emerging as the leading incentive destination in South America due to an immense diversity of eco-regions combined with an age-old culture, spectacular gastronomy, luxury and international hotel chains with facilities designed for meetings and events, and a high level of safety and security. The capital city, Lima, is establishing itself as a regional meeting hub with the upcoming opening of the Lima Convention Center, which can hold up to 10,000 attendees.”
