AdventureELEVATE is a business-to-business conference focused on the adventure travel industry. A majority of the attendees will come from businesses and publications located in North America and the educational content will be geared toward North American business needs and trends. The networking and MediaExchange events will be beneficial to delegates from around the world.
There’s room for 250 delegates to attend the AdventureELEVATE. With its focus on topics and trends for the North American travel trade, a mix of North American-based tour operators and travel advisors, media, industry partners, as well as international tourism boards and destination management companies attend AdventureELEVATE. ATTA members receive a registration discount, but non-member adventure travel industry colleagues are invited to apply. Register Now.
Instead of set MARKETPLACE appointments, ELEVATE will feature a D.N.A. (Disruptive Networking Adventure) event that will give all delegates time to network and meet during a late afternoon cocktail event with creative incentives to spur conversation. In addition, the ATTA Event app will allow you to schedule meetings in advance with other delegates during available networking time.
Connections with media are a key benefit to attending AdventureELEVATE, and our MediaConnect event — featuring meetings between delegates and media — remains ranked one of the most valuable reasons of attending according to our post-delegate feedback survey. An estimated two dozen media representatives will be in attendance, journalists specializing in adventure travel storytelling through a variety of channels including magazines, newspapers, digital publications, blogs, photography, broadcast, and video. Get your elevator pitches ready!
A like-minded group of adventure travel industry professionals will attend and be eager to learn and meet with new colleagues. At ATTA events you can expect a warm and eager welcome and enthusiastic individuals looking to discuss business challenges and opportunities. At AdventureELEVATE 2015 and 2016, delegates reported each leaving with 12 new, quality networking connections.
