Connecting the Gro up Travel
and Tourism Industry
For 30 years, our portfolio of products has helped
shape the group travel sector.
Launching the first national group travel magazine and instigating the first nationally recognised
association for group travel (GTOA, now AGTO) were our first steps into giving a voice to our
industry. Over the years, our reputation for innovation has led us to launch other successful
initiatives such as The Group Travel Awards and more recently the GO Travel Show.
We hope our information pack gives you new ideas and inspiration for targeting the group travel
sector as well as the wider travel trade.

For group travel
professionals
The Group Travel Business Forum has been
in existence for over 10 years as an informal
grouping of professionals who specialise in
providing products and services to the group
travel and tourism market.
It was established in recognition of the fact that
the voice of group travel as a distinct sector of
the industry is often missing in discussions
with official bodies and in meetings of other
professionals in the field, and the exchange
of expertise and knowledge between group
specialists can be very beneficial to both
individuals and the sector as a whole.
Our mission
Annual meetings The underlying mission of the forum is
to help support those working directly
Our annual meeting in November has with the groups market, share expertise
drawn up to 100 people each year and, and best practice amongst them and
in the last four years, we have added present a greater understanding of the
additional gatherings at the Best of Britain groups business to others in the travel
and Ireland show in March, World Travel and tourism world.
Market in November and on the day of the
Group Travel Awards in June. As well as regular pages in GTO magazine
we also have a dedicated website
