One platform, ample benefits – PHILINDEX 2014The DOT Philippines India office is organising the PHILINDEX – Philippine India Exchange, 2014 in Manila from 22-28 September.
PHILINDEX is a B2B event where Indian buyers and sellers from Philippines come together in a format where there is focussed exchange of business. The buyers will meet on a one-on-one basis with the suppliers and local tour operators, ensuring choicest interaction, business closures and value for money experience. These buyers will be handpicked by Philippine Tourism from predominantly Tier II cities like Kolkata, Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai, Pune, Punjab, Guwahati, Indore etc among Delhi and Mumbai.
Speaking on the occasion, Mr. SanJeet, Tourism Attaché, Philippines Tourism Marketing Office, India said, “With India having many urbanized cities, there is a need to keep looking for partners and strengthening partnerships already made to ensure that there will be tour packages available for more and more Indian travelers, in family travel and in the MICE sector, particularly incentive travel”.
“With the introduction of Philippines into new cities and the continuous destination updates provided to the Indian travel trade, this platform is a cost effective and efficient way of reaching potential groups thereby convincing consumers to travel to the Philippines. By showcasing the destination to the Indian tour operators in these markets and involving them in a purely B2B environment to interact with the local suppliers, we are confident that Philippines will be more visible to the Indian traveller”, he added.
The PHILINDEX will host business-to-business meetings, press briefings, one day technical visit to Pagsanjan Falls and post tours to Cebu, Boracay and Davao.
