The Puerto Rico Convention Bureau has launched an exclusive online education program tailored to meeting planners, dubbed the “Puerto Rico Smooth Meeting University,” that includes courses on topics such as meeting hotels, the Puerto Rico Convention Center, history and culture, golf, shopping, dining and nightlife.
The Puerto Rico Convention Bureau will be the main sponsor of the Puerto Rico Showcase & Travel Expo taking place Nov. 29-Dec. 2, that will bring together 80 meeting planners to gain an overview of what the island has to offer meeting and convention groups.
Veteran hotelier Raúl Bustamante has been named chairman of the Puerto Rico Convention Bureau’s board of directors, the trade group announced Monday. Gov. Luis Fortuño, who had appointed Bustamante as member of the board in August 2011, designated him to the new post.
