ACTA opens registration for fall summits

Registration is now open for the three ACTA Travel Industry Summit events to be held in September.

This year’s theme is “The Future is Bright – Exploring the Possibilities.”

The summit events feature top motivational speakers, entrepreneur panels, peer-to-peer learning and a day of professional development and networking.

There will also be a Grand Trade Show with more than 100 suppliers for Toronto, 70 suppliers for B.C. and over 50 for Quebec.

The premier sponsor for the events is Air Canada, while major sponsors are Globus, Manulife and Marriott International, and destination sponsor is Brand USA.

Emcee for Ontario and B.C. will be Ryan McElroy, CEO of Travel Agency Tribes, and Quebec’s emcee will be Annie Peyton, psychosociologist, speaker and intuition specialist.

Keynote speakers include Kerianne Wilson, director of customer accessibility at Air Canada, who will speak on enhancing accessibility in travel; and David Tanguay, head of global sales at Aurora Expeditions, who will speak on maximizing sales and profit, as well as discovering the world of expedition cruises.

In Quebec, Peyton will lead a session on maximizing business, creativity and well-being through the development of intuitive intelligence in your professional and personal life.

ACTA summits are complimentary for ACTA members.

Non-ACTA members will be asked to provide a $50 contribution to the Advocacy Fund.

Travel advisors, managers, senior leaders, consortia and host agency teams are all invited to attend.

Those who register before July 31 will be entered into a prize draw of a $250 Visa gift card (there will be one winner per summit).
