The Sports & Events Tourism Exchange (SETE) Conference and Exhibition, together with the Culture, Arts, Tourism, Hospitality and Sport Sector Education and Training Authority (CATHSSETA), is a dynamic business to business platform that is aimed at positioning South Africa as a sports and events tourism destination. It encourages collaboration between the sports, events and tourism industries who will showcase their product offerings to the attending International Hosted Buyers and SA corporates who are interested in bringing business to South Africa.
This year's conference is aimed at celebrating the successes and achievements of the events tourism industry over the past 20 years. This year the focus has been expanded to include Arts, Cultural and Lifestyle events with sports events as part of the Events Tourism sector.
The Conference's aims and objectives:
Conference topics and briefs include:
The debate is aimed at reviewing the implementation of the resolutions adopted at the SETE 2013 conference and to understand the role that the relevant government institutions will play in prioritising events tourism.
