Welcoming international agritourism leaders
Two high-profile, international agritourism leaders, have been announced as speakers at this years’ Scottish Agritourism conference.
Early bird tickets for the annual conference are on sale now, with a discounted rate applied until the end of August.
The conference, now in its fifth year, will take place at Perth Concert Hall on the 18and 19 November. The one and half day conference is Scotland’s largest annual gathering of agritourism businesses and sector supporters, the fourth in-person conference hosted by the sector body since it was formed in June 2020.
The impressive programme includes sessions covering innovation, the importance of building great teams, tourism sector insights with a focus on food and drink experiences, and the future of agritourism which will be led by the conference’s delegation of fully funded, Agritourism Futures scholars.
Meet the speakers
A session focusing on International agritourism will welcome speakers Marijke Dunselman and Pandurang Taware, both eminent agritourism figures in their respective countries of New Zealand and India.
Both speakers have played a fundamental role in developing agritourism in their home sectors and continue to make significant impacts to agricultural landscapes by raising the profile of agritourism as a form of diversification for farmers.
