Skål International Hosts 2024 World Congress in Izmir, Turkey

Skål International’s highly anticipated 83rd World Congress takes place in the vibrant city of Izmir, Turkey, from October 16th to 21st, 2024.

The annual event brings together travel and tourism professionals from nearly 40 countries, offering a global platform for collaboration, knowledge exchange, and discussions on sustainable tourism.

Izmir, situated along Turkey’s stunning Aegean coast, provides an ideal setting for this year’s congress. Known for its rich cultural history and modern innovation, the city will play host to Skål’s two key themes for the year: #BuildingBridges and #EmpoweringDiversity.

As one of the country’s most economically significant cities, Izmir offers a fitting backdrop for discussions at the intersection of tradition and future-forward thinking in the tourism industry.

Skål International President, Annette Cardenas emphasized the significance of the congress, stating: “Our annual World Congress is a vital gathering for tourism professionals worldwide. It not only allows us to build bridges and connections but also inspires new initiatives and partnerships that will help drive tourism growth responsibly and sustainably”.

The event’s diverse agenda includes the Annual General Assembly (AGA), B2B sessions, keynote addresses, panel discussions, and networking opportunities. Topics such as the future of sustainable tourism, the role of AI in the travel industry, and the importance of global collaboration will be at the forefront. In addition, participants will have the chance to explore Izmir’s unique offerings, from its ancient ruins to its modern architectural landmarks.

A significant highlight of the congress will be the B2B networking sessions, where members can form new business relationships and strengthen existing ones. Attendees will also get to enjoy guided tours showcasing Izmir’s cultural and culinary heritage, making the congress an immersive experience beyond the discussions.

The event will culminate in the traditional Skål International President Gala Dinner, celebrating the achievements of the year. The Annual General Assembly will also convene to chart the organization’s strategic path forward.
