SATTE 2024 introduces “ATITHI” an exclusive Reverse Buyer-Seller Meet, a pioneering initiative by Services Export Promotion Council (SEPC), with the support of Ministry of Commerce & Industries.
Aimed at boosting inbound tourism, SEPC, in association with SATTE, is mobilizing the participation of around 250 international buyers from more than 50 countries to enhance business opportunities for stakeholders from Indian Tourism Industry from across India. The SEPC@SATTE initiative comes at the most opportune moment to make India a most sought-after travel destination in the world, and to ultimately accomplish Vision@2047.
Notably, Mudras said, there was a significant increase in travel frequency among Indians, including for MICE tourism, with a growing interest observed in both popular, lesser-known, and spiritual destinations. This trend presents an opportunity for destination diversification and addresses concerns regarding over-tourism.
