While celebrating the remarkable 75th Year of its foundation, the oldest Travel Congress -Travel Agents Association of India is all set to organise it’s ’68th Convention & Exhibition’ in Abu Dhabi from September 17th -19th, 2025.
While formally announcing the salient features of the Convention, Sunil Kumar, President, TAAI, said: “It is a proud moment for TAAI to bring the 68th Annual Convention to the dynamic city of Abu Dhabi in collaboration with DCT Abu Dhabi.”
Speaking on the theme chosen for the Convention, Kumar said that our theme, ‘Business with Goodness’reflects our shared vision of building meaningful partnerships rooted in trust, purpose, and progress.
“This convention will not only provide an enriching platform for knowledge-sharing and networking but also offer our members an immersive experience into Abu Dhabi’s diverse cultural, leisure, and business landscape. We look forward to a highly engaging and impactful gathering,” he added.
While elaborating more on this Kumar said that it has long been believed that tourism is the ‘Harbinger of Peace‘. Interaction between people of other cultures through travel and tourism, which is based on empathy, peace and the absence of prejudices, can help all to nurture the purpose of living and travelling among the people around the world. When the eco-system is disrupted as a result of inter-nation conflict, travel and tourism as an important activity deprives people of the opportunity of improved and more satisfying living.
The Convention will focus on the business techniques and improvements that we must proactively implement as well as experiences and take-home messages that may add in increasing the goodness that we are actively engaged in.
