Calling all Asia Pacific agents! Launching Experience PATA We know that for many of you, Taste of PATA was a highlight in your calendar, with the Truman Brewery in Brick Lane coming alive with the sounds, flavours and buzz of the Asia Pacific region. Whilst we’re not able to gather together in person, we could not let September pass without our annual celebration – and so we’re delighted to launch Experience PATA - the ultimate @ home showcase of the Asia Pacific region. How does it work? Over three weeks in September, PATA together with Travel Uni, will be bringing you a host of interactive, virtual sessions covering Asia Pacific destinations, products and attractions. These include: MASTERCLASSES Every Tuesday & Wednesday there will be a live destination masterclass from one of our primary sponsors; tune in live to join in the discussions and Q&A, as well as be in with a chance to win spot prizes, or watch in your own time on our Facebook page. VIDEOS We will also be premiering a host of short videos from our suppliers – a great way to top up your knowledge. Take a 10-minute coffee break and check these out on Facebook. EXPERIENCE LIVE SESSIONS Over 3 Thursdays, we will be bringing you our 90-minute EXPERIENCE LIVE sessions – using an advanced tech platform, you will have a chance to join us in the main arena before visiting each of our supplier ‘stations’ by clicking on their tables for 7-minute sessions. Suppliers will be waiting to update you on their destinations and products, as well as answer all your questions in these 2-way sessions. Just like the real thing! Complete your Virtual Passport by collecting a 'stamp' from each supplier to be in with a chance to win some great top prizes. Who can I meet?
