The annual event showcases the world's most exclusive hotels, resorts and operators of luxurious travel experiences - and provides them a forum to meet travel-arrangers for the elite.
Serge Dive, co-founder of the luxury expo concept, said: 'With the explosion in wealth and prosperity from the Asia Pacific region, we felt it was time for a dedicated platform for the world's luxury travel industry to meet face to face with the top buyers from this dynamic region.
ALTM is the sister event to the highly successful International Luxury Travel Market (ILTM), now in its 5th year, which brings the world's top buyers and sellers of luxury travel together every December in the picturesque city of Cannes, in the heart of the French Riviera.
Last year's event attracted over 3,000 travel industry professionals and media, with over 42,000 business-to-business appointments arranged in three days, along with numerous evening functions.
'The Cannes event has been an enormous success and we are excited to now bring it to the Asia Pacific,' said Jay Martens, Event Director of ALTM.
'China is one of the exciting markets in the region that we are targeting and what better place to hold the event than Shanghai, Asia's most exciting and glamorous new city.'
Unlike any other trade show, ALTM is staged in a highly exclusive environment in which buyers and sellers meet on a unique pre-arranged appointment system.
The event will also be surrounded by a number of exclusive and glamorous networking parties destined to be the talk of the town.
High tech devices will even allow buyers and sellers to locate one another electronically.
David Hammond, a foremost expert in the luxury travel industry who also co-founded the travel mart concept, said: 'ALTM will be run like a private club. Only the most exclusive travel suppliers and the most important VIP travel buyers will be allowed to attend.'
Buyers from leading markets in the Asia Pacific region are attending by invitation only and are 'fully hosted', he added. To preserve the exclusivity of the inaugural event, only 300 exhibitors and 300 VIP Buyers will be allowed to attend the show.
ALTM will be preceded by a high-level conference of international experts presenting insights into the latest trends shaping the world of luxury travel.
