Leading by example and doing away with conventional member meetings, Coffee & Connect by Tourism India Alliance (TIA) was recently launched in Jaipur for its Members and special invitees.

Whereas the convention during such association meetings till now has been that the team on one side of the Dais speaks and the members on the other side of the Dais just listen. TIA Jaipur members made such meetings more engaging where everyone got the opportunity to talk, network, exchange ideas, and gain insights.

In its inaugural monthly meeting “Coffee & Connect” by TIA, members from Jaipur gathered to engage in meaningful discussions over some superb coffee, delving into a range of pertinent industry topics and sharing unique personal experiences from the past three months of the summer season. Trending industry-relevant topics like Multigenerational Travel, Holidays to long-haul destinations, Experiential MICE, High-End Luxury Travel, Market Research, and positive migration to Service Charge regime were discussed.

The Coffee & Connect by TIA series aims to become a regular monthly event from now onwards, scheduled for every third Saturday of the month in all the cities where it has more than 10 members (Kolkata, Bhubaneswar, Jaipur, Mumbai, Raipur, Delhi to name a few), fostering continuous engagement and knowledge sharing among TIA members.

“Subject Experts will also be invited during these meetings to share their knowledge with the members. This initiative is set to strengthen the community and keep everyone updated on the latest industry trends and best practices.” – Prashant Kothari, Vice President – Tourism India Alliance (TIA)
