Mr. Vineet Verma , President-WTC , ED & CEO Brigade Hospitality is the Vice President of Karnataka Tourism Society. He met the Hon. Chief Minister of Karnataka Mr.B.S. Yadiyurappa along with other office bearers of Karnataka Tourism Society and submitted a memorandum seeking support for re-opening of the sector post Covid. The delegation requested the State Government to consider certain relaxations and exemptions to the ailing tourism, hospitality and travel industry. These sectors continue to bear the brunt of the pandemic and nationwide lockdown that followed. They suggested that the State should declare these sectors as industry and defer the decision to hike electricity and water tariffs. The meeting also discussed ways to boost domestic tourist inflow into the State.

Under his able guidance Brigade Hospitality in association with Bangalore Chamber of Commerce and Industry have recently announced an online upskilling course that can help freshers and existing employees enhance their skills in the hospitality sector.
