"Chief Minister Paul Henderson said that conventions and business events would play an increasing role in boosting the NT tourism industry. Mr Henderson visited the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre during the first leg of his trip to Asia and the U.S and met Cliff Wallace, a leading figure in the global conventions and exhibitions industry. “Conventions and business events are playing an increasingly important role in attracting visitors to the Territory – complementing our traditional tourism strengths such as our natural attractions, Indigenous culture and art, backpackers and the cruise ship industry,” Mr Henderson said. “The Northern Territory Government is a strong supporter of the industry in Darwin and Alice Springs."
