Taking place under one roof it attracts the attention from International and National tourism boards, tour operators, hotel chains, airlines, cruise lines, associations, DMC’s and many others. The 2 Day B2B and 1 Day B2C event is considered to be a not-to-be-missed event in India.

During this year’s exhibition, Skål India was offered a free stall in the exhibition and all Skål Bombay members were individually couriered a lanyard by IITT, so that they could attend as participants. The stall was sufficiently manned by members who took turns over the 3 days and explained to visitors the benefits of joining Skål. The club is confident of a strong result for its latest membership drive.
