The Ministry of Tourism, Government of India, organised a roadshow with the aim of raising awareness among stakeholders in the travel and tourism industry about the upcoming 1st Global Tourism Investors’ Summit.

The roadshow was chaired by G Kishan Reddy, Minister for Tourism, Culture and DoNER (Development of North Eastern Region), along with Arvind Singh, Secretary, Ministry of Tourism, and Rakesh Kumar Verma, Additional Secretary, Ministry of Tourism. In addition to promoting the summit, the roadshow also provided an opportunity for the Ministry of Tourism to gather feedback from industry stakeholders and address any concerns or questions they had. 

Addressing attendees at the roadshow, Reddy said, “Considering the plethora of experiences the Indian tourism industry offers, such as wellness tourism, adventure tourism, eco-tourism, rural tourism, spiritual tourism and several others, both the State and Central Governments recognise the role that tourism can play in driving economic growth. Therefore, private investment, particularly in hotels and other tourism-related infrastructure, is critical.” 

The primary goal of the upcoming Global Tourism Investors’ Summit is to highlight India’s travel and tourism sector as an ‘Ideal Investment Destination’ and give investors as well as the Central and State Governments a unified forum to explore investment opportunities.
