Where Growth Markets Meet Global Travel Leaders

Your Gateway to the World’s Fastest-Growing Travel Buyers

GVS brings together 70+ leading international buyers from rapidly growing inbound markets to the UAE—including India, GCC, Brazil, CIS, Mexico, and Europe.

These regions represent some of the fastest-growing outbound travel markets globally, with rising demand for luxury experiences, MICE programs, cultural journeys, and wellness tourism in the UAE. GVS is your opportunity to connect directly with the influential travel professionals who are shaping this growth—tour operators, DMCs, incentive planners, luxury travel curators, and high-end FIT specialists.
