The assembled representatives of companies from the tourism industry, and mainly owners and directors of German, European, and global tourism companies also traveled across Slovenia.
By hosting this event, Slovenia once again proved its position as the important European tourist destination among tourism business professionals. Even more, Slovenia continues to successfully run as a candidate for hosting events of renowned international tourist associations.
