SBI SME TOURISM INDABA 2026
Tourism unfiltered: the conversation that matters

Tourism is one of South Africa’s greatest opportunities for economic growth and job creation, but its full potential cannot be unlocked without the small businesses that bring our destinations to life.

On Wednesday, 23 September 2026, in Tourism Month, the SBI will bring together tourism entrepreneurs, business chambers, industry leaders, government, policymakers, and corporate partners for an honest and forward-looking conversation about the future of tourism and what must be done to enable SMEs to start, run and grow.

Expect bold ideas, practical insights, new connections and the conversations our tourism economy urgently needs.

Date: Wednesday, 23 September 2026
Venue: Lord Charles Hotel, Somerset West, Cape Town
Time: 09:00 – 15:00
The full programme, speaker line-up will be announced soon.
