The conference program is specifically designed to give exhibitors the greatest amount of time with travel retailers to generate new leads and establish new business relationships.

Exhibitors will also have two days to pre-schedule one-on-one appointments with buyers. |

14-23 SEPTEMBER
JTBNA will host an ecumenical religious press tour for members of the Catholic Press Association (CPA); Evangelical Press Association (EPA); and Associated Church Press (ACP).
Although the collective membership of all Protestant churches is larger, the Catholic Church is the single largest denomination in North America, with a strong tradition of pilgrimage. Editorial coverage of Jordan and its holy sites that result from this press tour will help to inform various Catholic audiences as well as several mainline and evangelical communities. (Members of ACP represent primarily mainline Protestant media, although some members represent evangelical or Catholic publications. EPA consists of media from the more conservative Protestant denominations and para-church organizations.)
Combined Audience of registered media = more than 307,000 (print); 3 million+ hits a month (online). |

15-20 SEPTEMBER
JTBNA will be participating in the CNS (Congress of Neuro-Surgeons) that will be held in San Diego from Sept 15-20 as part of its bidding campaign to host the WFNS (World Federation of Neuro-Surgeons). The WFNS world congress happens every 4 years and is held in a different continent each time. The congress that would bring to Jordan around 6000 neuro-surgeons along with their spouses and would be a great opportunity for the country to show the ability and development the MICE market has won over the years and will therefore generate a good source of funds and income for people involved on the tourism and meetings industry. |
