Cooperation agreements and partners
The ideal and also commercially practical linkage of private and public interests - the "private-public partnership" - has been the guiding principle behind the GNTB from the outset. In times of budget constraints and increasing competition, this partnership between the state and private enterprise is more important than ever. Cooperation agreements and the pooling of budgets are thus the way forward in the marketing of Germany as a travel destination.
