ITB Berlin - Springboard for South American start-ups
The perfect way to achieve success: with the 'Travelups! Startup Challenge' on 31 October 2017 at the Feria Internacional de Turismo de América Latina (FIT) in Buenos Aires, Argentina's start-up community will be recognising South American travel industry start-ups. The winner will receive a comprehensive exhibitor package for the eTravel World at ITB Berlin 2018.
South American start-ups have time until 18 September 2017 to enter the 'Travelups Startup Challenge' with their innovations and ideas. A selection will be made based on three criteria: technology, sustainability and user-friendliness. After the jury has made its choice the ten best companies will compete in the challenge at FIT in Buenos Aires.
In its role as a major global brand, ITB is represented at FIT (28 to 31 October 2017) on its own stand (no. 2022) with ITB Berlin, ITB Asia and ITB China.
