Networks and Collaboration

Introductions with a clear professional purpose, connecting businesses, organisations, specialists and people working in destinations.

A small group of professionals talking in a bright meeting space.

The right connections for each need

Collaboration becomes more likely when each party understands what the others need and where they can contribute. We map roles, areas of expertise and relationships across the tourism ecosystem.

This includes accommodation, travel distribution, technology, transport, local production, education and local government. For each issue, we seek participants with relevant experience and the ability to contribute.

Ways to take part

  • Professional meetings around a specific theme
  • Connecting businesses with specialists and research organisations
  • Identifying partners for destination initiatives
  • Discussion groups around shared issues

From an introduction to a shared purpose

The first conversation helps clarify objectives, availability and next steps. Where there is shared interest, the collaboration can take the form of content, an event, a training activity or a defined project.
