The Mountain Travel Symposium which is now in its forty second year in its home territory of the USA, has now added a European leg to it. The foundation for this was laid down in 2014 when the symposium was taken over by tourism consulting firm Northstar Travel Group. The idea behind adding the European leg is obviously to facilitate networking to eventually expand business in the continent where winter tourism was first born. In the first year, the event will be held in the Swiss town of Crans-Montana. Senior leaders will here discuss critical issues and challenges pertaining to the mountain travel sector.
