What is Skål International?
Skål is a professional organisation of tourism leaders around the world, promoting global tourism and friendship. It is the only international group uniting all branches of the travel and tourism industry. Its members, the industry’s managers and executives, meet at local, national, regional and international levels to discuss and pursue topics of common interest.
The first Club was founded in 1932 in Paris by travel managers, following an educational tour of Scandinavia. The idea of international goodwill and friendship grew and, in 1934, the “Association Internationale des Skål Clubs” was formed with Florimond Volckaert as its first President, who is considered the “Father of Skål”.

President's Message

Sk. Shekhar Divadkar President, Skål International Asia
Dear Fellow Skålleagues
Welcome you to the home of Skål International Asia! A community where friendship and professional excellence go hand in hand.
For nearly a century, the spirit of Skål has been built upon four simple yet powerful words: Doing Business Among Friends. This is not merely our motto, it is our way of life. It is the promise we make to one another every time we gather, collaborate, and champion the remarkable world of travel and tourism.
Asia stands at the heart of this promise. As one of the world’s most dynamic and diverse regions, Asia is increasingly shaping the conversations that define global tourism. From the cultural richness of South Asia to the innovation-driven markets of East and Southeast Asia, our region pulses with energy, opportunity, and an unmatched spirit of hospitality. The future of Skål International, I firmly believe, lies in Asia; and together, we are leading the way.
Over the years I have seen friendships blossom into lasting business partnerships. I have seen industry leaders come together not as competitors, but as colleagues united by a common purpose. That is the enduring strength of Skål – the relationships we build, the trust we cultivate, and the doors we open for one another.
As President of Skål International Asia, my commitment is to deepen those connections, to create meaningful platforms for our members to grow professionally and personally, and to ensure that the values of sustainability, inclusivity, and responsible tourism are at the core of everything we do. Our region’s tourism professionals are among the most passionate and accomplished in the world and Skål Asia is their community.
Whether you are a long-standing Skålleague or discovering our organisation for the first time, I invite you to be part of this extraordinary family. Connect with us. Engage with our clubs. Attend our events. And experience for yourself what it truly means to do business among friends.
On behalf of the entire Skål International Asia family — welcome.
Skål!
Shekhar Divadkar
President, Skål International Asia
