To further promote USA as a destination of choice to Indian outbound travellers originating from South India, VUSACOM (Visit USA Committee), supported by the US Commerce Department, launched its Bangalore Chapter here on the 4th July.
This is the third chapter to be set up in India after Mumbai and New Delhi. The India committee comprises of leading travel companies that are promoting USA, State Tourism Boards, attractions, hotels and airlines, in addition to Honorary Committee Members from the U.S. Consulate General.
Speaking on the choice of the city Gauri Jayaram, President, Bangalore Chapter said “Bangalore is significant from the perspective of its strategic location in South India and the opportunity it offers to grow the MICE (Meeting Incentive Convention and Exhibitions) as well as educational exchange business.”
Recently, the U.S. Department of State implemented a program that will allow certain applicants to apply for visas without being interviewed in person by a U.S. consular officer. This will make it easier for Indian citizens to obtain visas to visit the U.S. for business meetings and also take time to enjoy the many tourist and cultural activities that America has to offer.
