Shivali Suri, Country Manager, VisitBritain, which enjoyed a highly successful debut at SATTE 2014 said, “UBM India has always been organising excellent exhibitions across the country. It is a platform for an NTO to showcase its products and regions with the right audience. Our business partners get the opportunity to enhance their growth over three days. Every travel agent / tour operator should mark it in their calendar each year to visit SATTE to develop their business and network with international counterparts. We look forward to the forthcoming SATTE.”
