The agenda includes:
Presentations by each of our six rep firms on connecting with our key overseas markets, including working with international tour operators, travel agents, media and receptive tour operators.
A presentation by Chief Marketing Officer David Whitaker of Brand USA — the official tourism marketing program of the United States, which encourages people from around the world to visit and explore our country — on what they do and how we work with them.

Attendees will walk away with resources that will help them reach the lucrative international traveler market, working directly with the PHLCVB team as we position our great city as a world-class tourism destination.
