Since its debut in 2005, ITE HCMC has grown into a hallmark event, bridging Vietnam and global markets, and this year's expo promises to take the experience to new heights.

"ITE HCMC 2024 will offer practical solutions from experts to aid businesses in their transition towards sustainable practices," Mrs Hoa stated. The expo will delve into practical strategies, featuring a series of workshops, conferences, and high-level forums where industry leaders and government officials will collaborate to shape the future of tourism.
