Adding to WTM Africa’s already impressive 2015 line-up is the prestigious Hosted Buyer Programme. This programme offers carefully selected travel industry buyers the opportunity to directly engage with WTM Africa exhibitors. “WTM Africa in Cape Town gives me a superb opportunity to meet with tour operators as well as hotel and lodge owners I would not otherwise know of, or be able to meet with outside of the WTM forum,” says Pia Severin Valentine, Sales & Product Manager at Trekking Bureauet, Denmark.

Carefully selected hosted buyers can look forward to a variety of benefits at WTM Africa such as a personalised diary of appointments with exhibitors of their choice, financial contribution towards flights, exclusive formal and informal networking opportunities, VIP access and exclusive post show tours.

Hosted Buyer, Victoria Boughton, who is the Senior Product Manager (Wildlife & Polar) for Exodus Travels, UK says, “I’m attending WTM Africa to network with existing and new suppliers. My key objective is to strengthen relationships with existing Exodus suppliers and to connect with new suppliers with the intention of researching and developing new ideas for the Exodus ‘Wildlife Encounters’ programme.”

Each Hosted Buyer must meet strict qualifying criteria and will be reviewed against their potential for future international business, past/future business in Africa, responsibility for contracting, as well as purchasing authority and management of the annual budget. Hosted Buyer Manager – Paulina Lund says, “We are delighted with the interest so far and we’re happy to report that we have already confirmed top quality buyers from 21 different countries.” Register now to qualify as a WTM Africa Hosted Buyer, visit wtmafrica.com/visit
