This event stood out not only for the high level of participation, but also for emphasizing that travel agencies are more alive and strengthened than ever.
This year’s convention held special significance as Team Group commemorates its 20 years of existence, during which it has worked diligently to strengthen and professionalize its associated agencies. The event was supported by the City Council of Roquetas de Mar, the Provincial Council of Almería, and Andalusian Tourism, who highlighted the sector’s significance in the local economy.

Furthermore, a session on Artificial Intelligence and its application in travel agencies was held, exploring tools and strategies to increase productivity and optimize processes. This practical approach was considered one of the most valuable features of the convention, providing concrete solutions for the daily management of businesses.
Ana Sánchez Barreiro, CEO of Team Group, emphasized in her opening speech the true value of travel agencies, stressing that they are not just price comparison websites or lists of offers, but professionals who understand the needs of their clients before they recognize them themselves. This message resonated throughout the convention, reaffirming the importance of trust, knowledge, and personalized service in the sector.
The XVII Convention of Travel Agencies Associated with Team Group concluded with a positive assessment and a clear message: agencies are not alone.
