Chardonnay Marchesi, General Manager of Africa Travel Week has answered all the questions for nEventum.

What makes WTM different from other events of its kind?

Our differentiating points are that we cater to both the inbound and outbound sectors of travel and tourism. Located right at the southern tip of Africa, in the beautiful city of Cape Town, WTM Africa is the only show on the continent offering an African focused travel trade show. As we form part of the global WTM Portfolio, it gives us an advantage in terms of access we have to an extremely large bank of buyers from across the globe which enables us to bring new, qualified buyers to our exhibitors. We have no self-serving agenda or political affiliation. WTM Africa means business.
