Rendez-vous Canada 2012: ready to rev up big business for tourism
VANCOUVER, May 8, 2012 /CNW/ - International tourism
already contributes over $15.1 billion in revenue every year
to Canada's economy, and will soon be even bigger as
the Canadian Tourism Commission (CTC) gears up to
kick-off Rendez-vous Canada 2012 (RVC), the country's largest
annual international marketplace for the tourism
industry.
Led by the CTC, RVC 2012 will take place May 13-16 at
the Edmonton EXPO Centre in Edmonton, connecting some of
the world's most influential travel buyers from over 20 countries
with Canadian sellers of tourism products and services. During
23,000 face-to-face business appointments over four days, buyers
and sellers hold meetings that would otherwise only be possible
through a number of around-the-world trips. RVC enables
tourism professionals to broker deals and close sales, generating
hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue for Canadian
businesses.
