Welcome to Day 3 of WTM Africa!
The last day of WTM Africa has arrived! These past three days have been a blur of networking, relationship building, deal-making and some serious fun, too. We trust your experience will prove to be both fruitful and unforgettable. We’d love to hear about them, so drop us an email anytime. When the business of the day is done, I urge you to unwind and enjoy the best that Cape Town has to offer.
Until next time,
Katie Reynolds-Da Silva
Editor in Chief
