Caribbean ACTS Exhibition Open to Public

Delegates and the general public were invited to attend the ACTS Exhibition on June 22 from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. as part of the inaugural Annual Caribbean Tourism Summit (ACTS) in Washington, D.C.

Attending consumers received free admission for the opportunity to interact with policy makers and tourism officials from more than 30 Caribbean countries who presented the latest innovations in marketing, web design and new advances in the hotel service industry.

“We have many prominent exhibitors represented at our first annual ACTS Exhibition,” said Hugh Riley, co-chief operating officer for the Caribbean Tourism Development Company. “Some will be showcasing new and enticing products and services that will enhance the way we do business in the Caribbean, while others will focus on ways of improving the vacation experience for our visitors.”

Organized by the Caribbean Tourism Development Company (CTDC), the marketing and business development unit owned equally by the Caribbean Hotel Association (CHA) and the Caribbean Tourism Organization (CTO), ACTS is being held from June 21 to June 24 at the International Trade Center in the Ronald Reagan Building.

The conference is focusing on two critical issues for the Caribbean tourism sector: marketing and investment and the greater implications they have on various other industries such as agriculture, construction, aviation and more.
