Travel 2.0 @ The NY TravFest this Saturday 4/26/14

This Saturday I’ll be hosting a full-day Travel 2.0 session at the 2nd annual NY Travel Festival. “Travel 2.0 @ #NYTF” is a full-day event packed with informative presentations and panel discussions exploring what’s next in the travel industry. The event offers a unique opportunity for travel startups to showcase what they are working on to a mix of top-notch industry, media and tech-savvy consumers. As with all Travel 2.0 events, networking and brainstorming will be encouraged! Details are here:...

Calls for Presentations at the NY Travel Festival on 4/26/14

I am helping to produce the 2nd annual New York Travel Festival on April 26, 2014 at Bohemian National Hall. My groups Travel 2.0 (Co-Organizer) and Travel+SocialGood (Committee Member) are both holding events in conjunction with the festival, and each will offer travel entrepreneurs and companies some fantastic visibility opportunities. Call For Presentations and Participants At “Travel 2.0 @ NYTF” We still have spots open for innovative travel startups and companies to collect helpful feedback and showcase what they are working on to the tech-savvy, immersive audience of the New York Travel Festival. Participants will have two opportunities: 1) Give a presentation to the audience to demonstrate your product 2) Set up at a table with latptops, tablets etc to interact 1-on-1 and go into more detail on your product with attendees All participants will also receive promotion via nytravfest.com and the festival’s social media channels. We expect dozens of people in the room at any one time, especially for the presentations. This will be similar to the typical Travel 2.0 event format in that it is a forum for young travel companies to get feedback and exposure, but on a larger scale. Details on the audience: In addition to the Travel 2.0 audience, the NY Travel Festival attracts hundreds of consumers, media and industry. Consumer attendees are generally younger (25-40), a third have incomes over $100,000 a year, and a great portion of them take at least one international leisure trip a year. Media attendees range from niche bloggers to editors of major publications. Industry attendees include primarily tourism boards, PR agencies and suppliers.
