Puerto Rico’s “visitor economy” may represent a greater economic impact than tourism statistics alone suggest, so there is a need to design a measuring mechanism to produce a “sustainable, growing cluster of industries that drive further development and growth.”
The Puerto Rico Hotel and Tourism Association recently held its summit event for the awarding of employees, supervisors, and managers in all components of tourism on the island, "The Super Stars of the Tourism,” at the Sheraton Puerto Rico Hotel.
Looking to generate new business opportunities to promote the island’s economic growth, the operators of the Puerto Rico Convention Center are launching a campaign to attract more local and international events to the venue.
