More than 100 participants, from about 20 countries, took part in the conference. Themes covered in keynote speeches and issues that was discussed in the workshops included : marketing and product development of tourism products, SME`s working together on collaborative marketing, eco-certification, strengthening the PAN Parks brand and others.

- Kas mul jätkub piisavalt energiat ja enesemotivatsiooni, et uus hooaeg kulgeks edukalt?
- Kas minu pakkumine on atraktiivne ka pikemas perspektiivis?
- Miks külastajad mind üles ei leia?
- Miks ei võiks iga broneerimisvestlus lõppeda uue kliendiga?
- Miks mul on väike korduvkülastajate osakaal?
- Mida teha kapriissete klientidega ja kuidas ennast säästa?
- jne....
