Rosalinda Thomas, local representative of the ITB Berlin, the world’s leading trade show, is organizing the DR’s participation in next year’s event. This past March, 11,127 companies from 197 countries (up from 11,098) in 2009) exhibited the international travel industry’s entire range of products and services. Due to a well-chosen range of topics, the ITB Berlin Convention also exercises its role as the travel industry’s foremost discussion forum and think tank, with attendance rising again with 12,500 delegates taking part in the convention. The German tourism industry estimates that six billion euros worth of business was concluded at the ITB.
