The January issue of BOTT is a celebration of insights, milestones, and new beginnings. This edition is centred around two key highlights:
First, we reached out to nearly 50 tourism professionals and veterans to gather their perspectives on ‘Tourism Vision 2025’. Their collective wisdom, innovative ideas, and industry forecasts have been thoughtfully compiled to present a comprehensive outlook for the future of tourism in India.
Second, we take immense pride in showcasing the success of the ‘BOTT Knowledge Conclave’, held at the iconic Bharat Mandapam. The event was attended by close to 500 industry leaders and stakeholders, featuring engaging sessions, thought-provoking discussions, and stellar presentations. Ankush Nijhawan’s keynote address and his insightful presentation on emerging tourism trends were a major highlight, receiving widespread appreciation. Smt. Mugdha Sinha IAS, DG Tourism captivated the audience with her eloquence, while the Hon’ble Minister for Tourism expressed an encouraging and optimistic vision for the growth of tourism in India.
In addition, this issue includes extensive coverage of the BRICS Summit in Moscow, an exciting Taiwan FAM trip, and our regular interviews with industry trailblazers. We’re also thrilled to introduce a brand-new section, ‘Mumbai Diaries’, which will spotlight the latest news, trends, and happenings from India’s commercial capital.
As always, we remain committed to bringing you the latest updates and in-depth analyses from the world of travel and tourism. Let’s make 2025 a year of collaboration, innovation, and shared success.
Happy reading!
Warm regards,
Priyanka Saxena Ray
