“Our invited speakers represent organisations recognised for the success and expertise in innovation and disruptive thinking and they will be certain to challenge the traditional views of the travel and tourism industry as we focus on the responsible and sustainable development of the travel and tourism industry in the Pacific.
The outcomes from the discussions surrounding four key focus points (insights, development, expertise, and sustainability) will contribute towards achieving the objectives of the Pacific Tourism Strategy 2015-2019, which provides the strategic framework to support the development of tourism in the Pacific.
This charming colonial-style town, 40km east of the international airport, is the hub of business, government and shopping within Samoa and is an excellent place to explore or base yourself while discovering Samoa.
