Thank you to everyone who contributed to making this event a success. Looking forward to an even bigger and better edition next year.

[Pulkit Sharma @PulkitSharma__]

My personal highlights from our annual event at @ITB_Berlin .
The 26th edition of the @patwaworldwide World Tourism Leaders Summit 2026, on ‘The Future of Tourism’, was truly exceptional. Hearing insightful perspectives from Tourism Ministers made the summit inspiring.

[Pulkit Sharma @PulkitSharma__]

In my capacity as Director of Operations & Features Editor at PATWA, it was immensely fulfilling to see months of hard work come to fruition. Each edition brings a sense of déjà vu, yet every year also reinforces how much I genuinely enjoy being part of this industry.
