Colin Pegler, Chairman of the CTO Chapter, highlighted the importance of the renewed collaboration: “The CTO Chapter is thrilled to reignite our partnership with the CTO Secretariat after a four-year hiatus. This collaboration is pivotal in strengthening the Caribbean’s presence in our markets. Our board is committed to this collaboration, and the team is diligently working on a robust action plan for 2025 to keep the Caribbean at the forefront of global travel destinations.”

The CTO Chapter UK & Europe is poised to launch a series of impactful marketing campaigns and activations designed to engage consumers, travel trade professionals, and the media.

From cross-channel consumer campaigns to immersive travel trade training and media engagement, we are dedicated to delivering high-impact activations for our members and reviving the ‘One Sea, One Voice, One Caribbean’ spirit across our targeted markets and beyond.”
