Before you arrive:
✅Confirm your travel and accommodation arrangements.
✅Save the venue location for easy access.
✅Allow time for event registration and orientation.

What will TIFA 2026 conversations focus on?

The programme is designed around the sectors shaping tourism investment and local economic development.

Across the forum, discussions will cover trade, tourism infrastructure, creative industries, heritage, film, media, real estate, technology, green transitions and investment opportunity exchanges.

There will also be Investment & Business Opportunity Pitches and B2B/B2G sessions across tourism and hospitality investment, screen and creative production, real estate, heritage and cultural economy, infrastructure and green transitions, and technology.

This matters because destinations are not only places to visit.

They are economic systems.

They need infrastructure, creative assets, policy support, investment readiness, commercial partners and market access.

TIFA 2026 creates a platform for these conversations to happen with clearer purpose.

Your destination may already attract attention.

The stronger question is whether it can be presented as an investment proposition.

At TIFA 2026, destination opportunity is not about promotion alone. It is about helping tourism boards, municipalities, investment agencies and project owners explain what their destination needs, what it can offer and why the opportunity matters commercially.

A concise opportunity brief should answer:
What challenge is the destination addressing?
What investment or partnership opportunity exists?
What evidence supports demand?
What infrastructure, policy or market conditions matter?
What is being requested from investors or partners?
How could the opportunity support local economic development?

This is how destination visibility becomes more useful.

It gives investors, partners and institutions a clearer basis for discussion.
