ITB Berlin is one of the largest Tourism Fair, focus on Tour Operations and technology, which took place on March 6th to 10th.
Diogo Julião and Marco Aldeia attended from the Abreu online and have given the following feedback:
“All major online players were present, our aim was to finalise on-going businesses, make new contacts with clients as niche suppliers, to be acquainted with new software houses that also provide content, and to establish contact with German and other flash sales companies.
Our overall impression is that ITB is one of the leading trade shows in the World, moreover, for technology and online business and, as we have made for WTM, we should have a stand on technology quarters in 2013.”
