The Society of Incentive Travel Executives has selected the island of Aruba to be the host country of the SITE International Conference 2009, set for December 3 to 6. The event will bring the top minds in incentive travel, a multi-billion dollar global industry, to one of the Caribbean’s most celebrated destinations.

“Aruba is ideal for SITE’s constituency,” said SITE CEO Brenda Anderson. “Sharing experiential knowledge is imperative for incentive and travel professionals who wish to enhance expertise and better understand this worldwide industry,” she added.
