Agreement between OCA Global and Tourism Optimizer Platform for the Commercialization and Certification of Government and Institutional Service Providers Worldwide

Tourism Optimizer Platform (TOP), the only company in the world specialized in Governmental and Institutional Travel and Tourism (GITT), has signed an agreement with the prestigious certification firm OCA Global. The objective of this partnership is to certify service providers oriented towards this sector on an international level.

OCA Global, with a presence in more than 60 countries and a turnover of over 130 million euros, and Tourism Optimizer Platform (TOP), a pioneering company in the governmental and institutional travel sector, have reached an agreement to certify service providers specialized in this niche market. This market has unique requirements and needs different from other sectors and lacks typical elements of the tourism industry, such as seasonality.

TOP, an Affiliate Member of UN Tourism, is not only responsible for identifying the GITT sector but also for creating the GITT Standard International Norm. This is the only regulatory body and technical reference to date that identifies and regulates the flows, involved agents, and specific elements of this type of travel and events.

OCA Global, in turn, collaborates with leading international firms such as Airbus, Amazon, Google, Cepsa, BBVA, Fremap, Naturgy, Orbea, Renfe, Repsol, Siemens, Grupo Volkswagen, Inditex, Ferrovial, RTVE, Ohla, Sacyr, BP, among others, and now establishes this strategic alliance with Tourism Optimizer Platform.

The GITT sector generates more than €12.5M annually directly and much more indirectly. The sector has a socio-economic impact on destinations, generating wealth and adding additional prestige to the destinations themselves as well as to both the public and private sectors.
