International Trade Shows & Events
Australian Tourism Exchange (ATE) 2010 
This event is the largest international travel trade show in the Southern Hemisphere. It is a seven day program divided into eastern and western modules so that sellers (you) are able to meet potential international buyers from specific markets. The eastern module targets buyers from Asia Pacific countries whilst the western module targets buyers from UK, Europe, the Americas, New Zealand and the South Pacific.
