Hybrid event formats are becoming more important than ever. Such specialized exhibitions as RED are necessary for the international hotel and tourism sector.
After all, only a professional platform can give you the opportunity to conduct
a high-quality online presentation of the product.

Multi-format broadcasting in different languages allows you to create the best impression of the exhibiting region. Professional support and considering the specifics of the market help the regions to adapt their products to a specific country, establish direct relationships with potential partners and sign contracts.

We would like to thank Profi.Travel for their professional approach and assistance
in developing international partnerships, as well as promoting Russia in the international travel market.

Marketing research

Profi.Travel answers these and other questions when preparing RED online exhibitions, in order to offer the most useful business program to the professional audience.

What kind of Russian tourism product is interesting for travellers from certain markets, what information about Russian regions is lacking among the foreign b2b audience, what partners and market experts will be of interest to foreign tour operators and travel agents as potential partners?

1.

Training and accelerator
for regional travel business

After the webinars, there is a testing to determine speakers' presenting level and their admission to participate in the project.

1-2 months before the online exhibition starts, Profi.travel conducts
a series of webinars from experts of the target market — specialized programs called India, Germany, China Friendly. The programs are organized for Russian regions' travel business representatives in order
to share the information on how to receive the tourists from certain markets, considering their interests, needs and perception specifics.

2.

Presentation materials

The exhibition expert group discusses the program and presentation with speakers from the regions: information is adjusted to the needs of the target market. If necessary, recommendations are given on the timing and speech, so that the presentation of the region is consistent, interesting and shows the variety of tourism products.

One month before the online exhibition, we begin to translate and adapt the advertising materials and presentations for the target consumer. Two weeks before the event, Profi.Travel together with a representative expert of the target market, holds individual online meetings with exhibitors.
