Quote:

“It’s one thing to be represented in a travel brochure. It’s another to be in the boardroom as a key decision maker. Women often inspire the journeys but rarely ever get to lead the conversation.

As a leader in this space, IWTTF drives those turnkey conversations surrounding the immeasurable value of women in travel. And at IWTTF Europe, I am honoured to be speaking about diversifying travel for positive change and moderating a panel.”
