INDONESIA’s Ministry of Tourism is inviting small travel start-ups and hotels to take part in the upcoming PATA Travel Mart (PTM) 2016.

The ministry’s deputy minister for international marketing development I Gde Pitana said during a press conference in Jakarta yesterday that the trade show will be an excellent platform to get them to network with international buyers.

“Having PTM in Indonesia is a big opportunity for businesses in Indonesia to gain international experience with buyers,” he said.

“However, many of them have small promotional budgets. Therefore, we invite them to take part as sellers at the Indonesian pavilion with a very special price offered by PATA.”

The offer is only open to members of the Indonesia Hotel and Restaurant Association and the Association of the Indonesian Tours and Travel Agencies.

Additionally, companies need to have been in operation for at least one year and not more than five years. As well, hotels have to be individual properties.

“They will not be getting pre-scheduled appointments, naturally. However, they will have access to the buyers’ list and will be able to request for appointments directly online or during the onsite buyer-meet-seller session,” added Pitana.
