A Worldwide Call For Local Collaboration

Our new IMPACT Event Series, featuring local, regional, and national gatherings, provides destinations with the tools needed to move sustainable tourism forward in their regions.

Stemming from our annual summit, we supported the successful launch of the first regional event, IMPACT Sustainability Travel & Tourism – ONTARIO, hosted by the Tourism Industry Association of Ontario, in 2023.

Today, we continue to support regional events by equipping communities with the tools they need to host an IMPACT Event. We help communities mirror the success of our annual summit by helping you find the very best speakers and resources to lead needed conversations.

We invite you to join our dialogue toward sustainable travel and regenerative tourism by hosting an event in your region. Together, let’s ensure the positive future of travel and tourism.

The People Here Are Bold, They Want To Have The Difficult Conversations And To Move Forward From Them.
