Scottish Borders Tourism Industry Event - 1 December 2011
Over 50 representatives from tourism businesses across the Scottish
Borders attended an industry conference on the 1 December at the
Buccleuch Arms Hotel in St Boswells.
The conference brought businesses together to think about how
they could make things happen for tourism in the Borders. Attendees
were updated on the work of the Scottish Borders Tourism
Partnership, introduced to the 2012 Disney Pixar blockbuster
'Brave' and the new VisitScotland TV advert which will feature
Floors Castle near Kelso in 2012.
Professor John Lennon from the Moffat Centre for research
delivered an inspirational speech on how tourism businesses can
work to survive the recession. John spoke about implications for
tourism businesses and marketing and provided delegates with some
practical suggestions on how to respond to this.
Delegates heard about the latest developments in VisitScotland
websites and current and future marketing opportunities. Businesses
found out about how they can get involved in the Year of Creative
Scotland in 2012 and a session was delivered on opportunities
around accessible tourism.
