Tourism Minister Patricia de Lille has announced that all arrangements for Meetings Africa are on track although she is unable to confirm the name of the events management company EMC appointed to assist with execution of the trade show.
With under a month to go until the flagship business events trade show, industry associations have been placing mounting pressure on SA Tourism to, among other points of clarity, reveal the name of the appointed EMC amid growing concern about planning for the event.
SA Tourism has not responded to enquiries about the EMC appointment and De Lille could not elaborate on this when responding to Tourism Update s questions at a press briefing in Pretoria on Tuesday, January 27.
