"We are very excited about having the opportunity to meet, learn and share again with our colleagues and all attendants to our Annual Convention, particularly in this occasion when we are celebrating its silver anniversary as the most important vacation ownership industry forum in Mexico; a US12 billion dollar sector that represents 40 percent of the lodging supply in the country," said Juan Vela Ruiz, Chairman, AMDETUR.

AMDETUR (which stands for Asociación Mexicana de Desarrolladores Turísticos) is otherwise known as the Mexican Resort Development Association and acts as the national association for the timeshare and fractional ownership industry in Mexico. This will be the 25th annual convention for the association and is scheduled for June 22-24, 2011 at the Moon Palace Golf and Spa Resort in Cancun, Mexico under the theme "AMDETUR, 25 Years Promoting Mexico".

The event will also celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Quintana Roo State Vacation Clubs Association, where the "Sales & Marketing Vacation Club Forum of the Americas" will be featured, with the participation of Jim Madrid and Linda Clemons, human performance improvement and sales experts, and including remarkable speakers such as Lyn Heward, Director of Creation for Cirque du Soleil, and Karla Wheelock, who scaled Mount Everest, in the Convention's program.

"Due to our ever increasing reach throughout Mexico, it is a perfect fit for us to support the AMDETUR conference and the work the association does to help growth within the industry. We are proud to confirm this media sponsorship for the fourth time and will be actively encouraging our readers to attend," said Paul Mattimoe, president and CEO, Perspective Magazine.
