What our members say about ATEC

"There are many reasons why we continue to be partners and members in ATEC. Firstly we have the ability to attend many workshops, seminars and in particular the Symposium, which gives our company opportunities to put our hotels forward for consideration in the International Markets through our Inbound Tour Operators.

The fact that we can network with the ITOs both formally and informally along with our industry colleagues at many events during the year also allows us to spread our news and strengthen our awareness amongst the tourism industry.

I couldn’t see myself personally, or my company, lobbying government on issues such as visas that affect our inbound visitor numbers, which is another reason why I believe ATEC do play an integral role in not only our business but all businesses that rely on the international markets. "

Aileen Cobern - General Manager, Sales & Marketing, Choice Hotels Australasia

Member, Vic/Tas branch

"As a coach operator, ATEC membership has provided me with an unlimited opportunity to liaise and network with inbound tour operators and other suppliers from every aspect of Australian inbound tourism. In addition to providing an informal forum for establishing and maintaining rapport with current and prospective clients, ATEC seminars and workshops have been informative and have provided a fun and social avenue for keeping abreast of current tourism/travel industry issues, developments and trends."

James Rhinesmith - Sales and Marketing Cobb & Co. Coaches

Member, Vic/Tas branch

"As an ATEC Member since 1994, I value the opportunity to be part of an organisation which is comprised of quality operators and suppliers. I enjoy the camaraderie of other members who share the common goal of providing overseas visitors with a unique Australian experience."

Arthur Wong - Director, Time Travel Australia

Member, Vic/Tas branch

"Since Joining ATEC we have not looked back! ATEC is the main game in town & membership gives us the opportunity to mix & learn from the best & most experienced operators in the industry. If you’re serious about the tourism industry then you can’t afford not to be involved."
Craig Wachholz
General Manager
Lets Go Surfing - Bondi Surf School

"My membership of ATEC helps me keep in touch with what's going on in the industry and Symposium alone is worth the membership as the networking with all sides of the industry can be limited outside of this environment. Even though our inbound business is minimal here at the Stamford in Brisbane, being a member of ATEC provides me with everything I need for this part of our business."

Bruce White, Director of Sales Stamford Plaza Brisbane

Member, South Qld branch

"ATEC has allowed us opportunities to increase business, network and showcase our reef and island operations to key industry. ATEC is more than just ITO and supplier relationships, it has also provided us with opportunities for supplier-to-supplier contacts and opportunities."

Megan Bell - Director of Marketing, Quicksilver Group

Member, North Qld branch and North Qld Branch Chair

"Being a member of ATEC is 'the link' to developing your international business and forming long-term partnerships."
