As the dynamic tourism industry evolves, hard and soft skills gaps continuously exist. To bridge these gaps, the African Tourism Leadership Forum (ATLF) will present intra-Africa Tourism Entrepreneurship and Women in Tourism Masterclasses.

Scheduled to take place on October 3, these masterclasses will be a precursor to the sixth annual ATLF and Awards 2023 dedicated to upskilling, re-skilling, and empowering tourism stakeholders.

The main Forum will run from October 4 to 6 where over 500 physical delegates – including media and hosted buyers from across the globe – will converge at the Gaborone International Convention Centre, Grand Palm, for the event.

ATLF is an intra-Africa travel and tourism platform that offers the opportunity for marketing, sales, business development, and networking in a professional setting for suppliers (accommodation, travel trade, and service providers) to do business with their travel trade partners (DMCs, tour operators, travel agents, online travel agents (OTAs). Exhibitions, business exchanges, destination showcases, and networking sessions will be running concurrently as key components of the Forum.

Space is available to register for physical attendance, one-on-one B2B sessions, desktop exhibition, and destination showcases.
