The MTA team is the biggest ever to attend a Virtuoso Travel Week event.

Billed as the 'luxury travel event of the year', the by-invitation-only Virtuoso Travel Week 2014 runs from 09-15 August.

Close on 4,000 travel agents, wholesalers and suppliers are expected to attend conducting more than 350,000 one-on-one meetings across the week-long event.

The 'Rising Star' award is one of several 'Member & Preferred Partner Peer-to-Peer Awards' presented at Virtuoso Travel Week.

"Being nominated by an audience comprised of our industry peers is a huge acknowledgement," Mr Merricks said.

"It goes without saying we are all extremely proud to see Sara recognised in this way."

MTA tasted success at the 2013 event when the company was named Virtuoso's 'Top Producer Australia and New Zealand'.
