BACK TO CONTENTS BACK TO CONTENTS WTM SPEED NETWORKING A flying start to WTM 2013
WTM Speed Networking offered WTM 2013 a thriving start to the prosperous event.
211 members of the WTM Buyers’ Club arrived at the WTM Knowledge Theatre at 9am on Monday. These senior decision makers were ready to conduct business with over a thousand suppliers (exhibitors).
WTM Speed Networking was originally introduced in 2009, and organisers anticipate 2013’s Monday and Thursday networking sessions will help generate deals worth over £2 billion.
With 5-minute slots, timed on a giant centre stage clock, the buyers had the opportunity to meet, greet and discuss business deals. Buyers were sectioned and colour matched to the regions that they most wanted to buy from. The foundations for new contacts were agreed and long-term business partnerships formed, all in one hour.
WTM Means Business was the key theme for WTM 2013 and the WTM Speed Networking
sessions were no different. Providing an invaluable opportunity, buyers were able to fulfil their expectations whilst expanding their connections and businesses. WTM matches the right buyers to exhibitors and will continue to be an unmissable diary date for WTM 2014.
“This networking is taking all the hassle out of the show, I’m pretty much planning my days based on follow-up meetings with the people I meet here.” Helen Langthorne, Purchasing Manager, Lowcosttravel Group
“I’m really surprised to see so many people here, they were lining up to get in! It should be bigger this year. It is a brilliant idea and demonstrates just how much people want to work together.” Dr Auliana Poon, Tourism Intelligence International Managing Director
