His Excellency Ahmed Al Khateeb, Minister of Tourism of Saudi Arabia and Chairman of TOURISE, said:
“The future of tourism will be shaped not by any single destination, company or institution, but by the strength of the alliances we build between the public and private sector. Saudi Arabia has seen firsthand what becomes possible when ambition, investment and partnership move together. Through TOURISE, we are taking that experience to the global stage, connecting leaders across sectors and markets to turn shared ambition into action. In March, we invite the world to Riyadh to build the alliances that will shape the next 50 years of tourism.”
Gloria Guevara, President and CEO of the World Travel and Tourism Council, and panelist at today’s announcement, added:
“The next chapter of tourism will be defined by collaboration at a scale we have never seen before. ‘Alliances That Move the World’ captures the opportunity before us: to connect industries, capital and ideas in ways that create meaningful progress for destinations, businesses and communities. TOURISE creates the space for leaders to move beyond discussion and work together on practical solutions for the future of travel.”
TOURISE is backed by a Board of Trustees chaired by His Excellency, with global experts from online travel agencies, tour operators, hospitality, global tourism bodies, entertainment and media.
