Welcome to CATHIE
More than 200 hotel industry leaders attended the Central America Tourism & Hotel Investment Exchange (CATHIE), held in mid-April in San Salvador, El Salvador.
CATHIE focuses on hotel and tourism investment opportunities in Central America. An important feature of CATHIE is the active involvement of the national investment promotion agencies in the region, and the showcasing of new and exciting investment opportunities from each of the participating countries. A full conference program was planned by the CATHIE Program Planning Committee and ran along side an active networking/exhibit hall.
