The Rotorua Tourism Investment Partner Program - 2021

Background

Formed by industry leaders the Rotorua Tourism Investment Partnership was formed to provide additional funding to support the marketing and development of Rotorua as a visitor destination. 

After going through several iterations, in June 2017, it was formalized into an Incorporated Society to ensure that there was financial and governance transparency. 

While the industry is under stress, it is still our aim to be able to support the efforts of Rotorua Economic Development and collectively work towards the recovery of the sector while providing additional benefits to those financially contributing. 

In March 2020 the RTIP Board made a decision to cease all invoicing for the foreseeable future to give those in the membership the opportunity to adjust to the borders being closed and to find our feet as an industry with purely a domestic market. 

Future

We’ll continue to stay transparent with how money is spent and the direction of the marketing campaign.  Partners will continue to be able to contribute their ideas and thoughts on direction and spending through regular forums, feedback surveys and casual catch ups with the partnership board.
