ITG heads to San Francisco

Hot on the heels of its 2015 ITG business forum which took place in Singapore last weekend, Express Travel Group has confirmed that next year’s event will take place in San Francisco.

“Following a successful weekend in Singapore with so many committed members and partners in attendance and based on the crowd reaction from Saturday night, it is out members’ destination of choice for 2016,” executive general manager Ari Magoutis said.

“The west coast of the USA and, in particular, San Francisco is an important hub for many of our members and their customers as well as partners who service this terrific destination, which should also open up some unique pre and post experiences for our members.”

The city by the bay beat Ho Chi Minh to become the next venue, with more than 200 agents expected to attend the event which will take place from November 10 to 13.
