The highest rated Travel Innovation Summit innovators will be chosen to make their case in front of the most desirable travel industry audience anywhere—the Center Stage!
Talkbackers
Talkback, a signature component of PhoCusWright events, is when audience members are invited to the stage to ask questions. Immediately following certain keynote remarks, industry peers have a special opportunity to "square off" with a keynote speaker. After listening to a keynote address, Talkbackers take the stage and lead the Q&A (question & answer) segment. A Talkbacker's mission is to ask excellent questions. They should dig beneath the "polite surface" and explore "messier truths" that are below the surface. For consideration as a Talkbacker, individuals must be 1) registered to attend the event —as a delegate, sponsor or exhibitor; 2) a senior executive from a large travel, tourism or hospitality company or CEO of a mid-to-small firm; and 3) willing to be probing, pithy and provocative.
Five Minutes of Fame
The coveted "Five Minutes of Fame" segments are filled with the audience-voted finalists of The Travel Innovation Summit@The PhoCusWright Conference (see above). The highest rated Travel Innovation Summit demonstrators will be chosen to make their case in front of the most desirable travel industry audience anywhere—the Center Stage!
Executive Roundtables
A select few roundtables include media and financial analyst coverage as well as targeted geographic and special interest groups. Participation is by invitation only.
