Thank you to all those businesses and organisations who attended the regional Visit Wales Roadshows. The four events were very well attended and at each we shared information on:
- The latest investment projects
- Strategic marketing plans and easy to use stakeholder tools
- How Event Wales can work with the industry to secure a variety of events
- The latest research and insights findings
There was also an opportunity to hear from each Regional Tourism Forum Chair, and industry guest speakers gave excellent presentations that we were pleased to record as the content, as well as having a regional dimension, will be of interest to many stakeholders across Wales.
