Nearly 1,000 industry experts and professionals from more than 60 countries and regions are attending the conference, which concludes on Wednesday.

During the conference, Shanghai, Beijing and Hanghzou will host tourism promotion events.

The Shanghai International Convention Center now hosts about three international-level conventions every month and 700 meetings every year, up significantly after the city joined the ICCA, said Dai Changzheng, the convention center’s vice general manager.
