Invitation Visit USA Seminar 2019

The annual VUSA Seminar is hosted by the Visit USA Committee Austria. In 2019 we will offer the Visit USA Seminar for the first time in Salzburg.

Based on past years’ experiences and our association’s mission to meet the needs of all members – and event participants, we at VUSA Austria have taken several necessary decisions: For the 2019 season we have moved our annual event from January to an earlier date in November 2018. This will give us a better opportunity to reach more trade partners in the off-season.

We have also decided to organize only one event which will be held in the fabulous City Salzburg. The program for Salzburg will be similar to the ones we had during the past2 years in Linz and Vienna, meaning afternoon training sessions, early evening travel market and sit-down dinner with evening program for all partners. On behalf of the Visit USA Committee Austria we would appreciate if you will join us for this event in November and take the opportunity to reach and intereact with the Austrian Travel Trade.
