Programme
ITIC Investment Summit June
This virtual conference will discuss sustainable investment measures for the Middle East travel & tourism sector
and consider strategies to restore travelers’ confidence and move forward post-pandemic.
Dr Taleb Rifai is Former Secretary General to the United Nations World Tourism Organization and is also chairman
of ITIC, this conference organiser. In his message to panelists, attendees, participants and investors, he said: “We are living in unprecedented
times for the industry, facing its toughest challenge ever – stay home means no travel and, no travel, means no
tourism.
“Restructuring to Attract Sustainable Development and Customers in the
New World Order, on June 3, 2020. It is part of three days of virtual discussion at Arabian Travel Market,
the Middle East’s largest gathering of tourism professionals, that has gone virtual for 2020.
“This ITIC conference is vital at this critical time and I am pleased that it is part of ATM, which I commend
for facing the challenge
and ensuring they keep us all in contact with each other. ITIC is the leading travel and tourism investment
conference organiser and with ATM, this event offers time to reflect on the financial environment in this
badly
hit sector.
“We must all think together, out of the box, imaginatively, this is our real historic test. But I know that
the
Middle East has proven in the past that it is robust and has the capability to bounce back. I am saddened by
what we are living through but optimistic that the recovery will be positive.”
Moderated by BBC Presenter and broadcaster Rajan Datar, it will also examine repositioning your business, how to
attract
investment and the part governments must play in helping the sector recover.
The Middle East region that had a clear vision for the future has been hit hard by the pandemic but the ITIC –
ATM conference offers the
opportunity to plan for the future.
Governments are recognising that rebuilding a travel and tourism sector is essential and across the Middle East
there’s a new focus on health, safety and cleanliness as part of the vision
to relaunch travel and tourism.
Finance will be vital and while some businesses will fall by the wayside, some airlines will not survive and
some hotel chains will be unable to adapt, many others will and new players are
set to emerge offering travel solutions in this new normal.
Registration is free and we hope to welcome you there.

ITIC Global Investment Summit
Before Covid-19, the global travel and tourism sector grew at 3.9% outpacing the global economy growth of 2.5% for the ninth consecutive year. The sector contributed approximately US$8.9 trillion which represents 10.3% of global GDP in 2019 and one in 10 jobs (330 million) around the world.
The Covid-19 has brought the global economy and the travel and tourism sector to a standstill with unprecedented impact on society at large. It has destroyed economies leading to an economic and humanitarian crisis on a scale not faced since the Second World War. Over the past two months millions of people have lived with lockdown and while some countries have been able to contain the spread of the virus, others are still fighting to control it. The vast majority of businesses globally that depend on tourism and travel are desperate to reopen and begin operating under the “new normal”. This Virtual Summit on June 10 2020 is organised by the International Tourism and Investment Conference (ITIC) in partnership with WTM London. It brings together experts from the health sector, government ministers, policy makers and tourism leaders from the travel and tourism sector connecting them with investors, investment bankers and private equity firms to discuss and consider financial solutions and preparedness to reopen the tourism industry for a better future.This summit focuses on three themes:
1. Health: dealing with Covid-19, and how we restore travellers’ confidence and rebuild business. 2. Investment: understanding the financial mechanisms that allow you to survive and rebuild. 3. Future: This may not be the last crisis, how can you prepare for any future global catastrophe This virtual summit uses the latest video technology, viewable on your browser, will bring together more than 2,000 attendees in an interactive environment. Registration and attendance is free and we invite you to be part of it.Supporting Partners
