Setting The Stage
Hotelier India|April 2018

Over 1,200 delegates attended AccorHotels Showcase 2018, where the hospitality major highlighted exciting times that lay ahead for the MICE market in India

Setting The Stage

Outbound and inbound travel from and to India has been on the rise. As per research reports, in 2017, Indian travellers took three leisure trips and two in five Indians took international trips. This in turn is helping the hotel industry register good business, a fact that was unmistakable during the AccorHotels Showcase 2018, which witnessed participation from 35 hotels and resorts from the global network along with 22 hotels from India. These delegates included several Indian travel agents, wholesalers, corporate clients, tourism partners and MICE organisers in attendance, making this the largest ever AccorHotels Showcase event in Asia Pacific.
