The Committees

Industry Advisory Committees (IACs) are voluntary committees consisting of members of Manitoba's tourism industry. Members are chosen from a cross-section of industry sectors, including cultural attractions, operators, regional associations and small businesses. The committees provide input from the industry's perspective on issues, trends and events affecting tourism. The committees report to the President and CEO through the corresponding division's Vice-president and other senior staff assigned by the CEO.
