The PATA Hub City Forum is a prototype for a travel industry dialogue which PATA is taking on the road to six hub cities in 2012.

 

Our series of Hub City Forums attract key tourism industry stakeholders, captains of industry and high-level government and media representatives, and tackle issues in key destinations. The other venues lined up for the PATA Hub City Forum in 2012, following the forums in Hong Kong, Bangkok and Beijing, include Sydney, Wellington, and Fiji.
