Session Info

Prepare your business and destination for the shift from a “Demand-driven” group travel industry to a “Supply-driven” industry. The New York Sherpa will dissect the current group travel marketplace and how to evolve for each generation of customers. The next generations are unique but also amazingly similar in how they can be drawn to group travel.
