About Tourister 2025

Tourism Technologies, New Visions, and Connections - Tourister 2025 took place at the Hilton Batumi on November 20 and 21.

The Georgian Tourism Summit once again served as the central hub where all key players in Georgian tourism meet - including the private sector, education, technology, media, and public agencies. This year’s gathering clearly demonstrated that Tourister is not just an event; it is a platform where visions are shaped, collaborations are forged, and conversations begin regarding the future of Georgian tourism.

The two-day program was intensive and practice-oriented, featuring: 33 Speakers from Georgia and abroad, 7 practical workshops, nearly 400 attendees, approx. 200 Business Meetings facilitated by a new AI Matchmaking & Networking platform.

Summit participants included:

• Wyndham Hotels & Resorts
• Goodplace
• The Data Appeal Company
• EY Strategy and Consulting Co.
• Adjara Group
• ODA DMC Georgia
• Welcome to Georgia
• Travelfy
• and more.

It is vital for us that every year, Tourister serves as a venue where we not only discuss challenges but also identify real pathways to increase the competitiveness of Georgian tourism.
