“The travel industry has been hit hard, but the goal now is for all of us to stick together and find new ways to reinvent our businesses while helping restore confidence in consumers to start booking trips again,” says Simpson.
“We are all in the same boat right now and I hope to provide the guests at the ACTA Summit with energy, positivity and a few key ingredients to help them reinvent and rebrand their business.”
As keynote speaker, Bruce Poon Tip, founder of G Adventures, will share how the coronavirus pandemic presents an opportunity for businesses and individuals in the travel industry to help improve the state of the world.
On opening day, ACTA VP of Advocacy Heather Craig-Peddie will host a panel discussion to explore the future of the Canadian travel industry and examine the relationship between travel agencies and travel suppliers.
