At our annual conference, Propelling Smarter, Bolder Tourism, we explored how research is and can be effectively employed to advance Canada’s shared social, economic, environmental, and cultural goals. It is not ‘more’ tourism that Canada needs, it’s ‘better’, more energetic, astute, intelligent tourism. We seek style with substance, diversity with inclusion, and evolution with sustainability. Tourism researchers and their clients are embracing data and know-how to fearlessly chart new directions for established and emerging destinations, and supply impactful, brilliant experiences for our diverse markets. The 2018 conference in Halifax, Nova Scotia provided a platform for learning about new approaches, lessons learned and the challenges ahead, as we navigate post-truth, virtually-infused, climate change impacted, emerging environments.
Thank you for joining us on the East Coast – in Halifax, Nova Scotia – to discuss and share smarter, bolder travel and tourism research.
Our 2019 TTRA Canada Chapter Conference will be held from September 18 to 20, 2019 in Saskatoon Saskatchewan.
