SAN FRANCISCO—With its steady stream of dozens of speakers sharing insights, the fire hose of information that is the hallmark of eTourism Summit 2018 got underway with Tuesday’s Pre-Conference Day Workshops.

Follow along at #eTS18 on Twitter and check out post-eTourism Summit summaries on Facebook and LinkedIn.

For those who could not join us in person, we emphasize that eTourism Summit is both an event and a community. We are thankful for that community and to our valued sponsors who allow us to keep eTourism Summit small enough for top quality networking.

And to those who are attending, a warm welcome to San Francisco! We invite everyone to stay in touch via The Travel Vertical…it’s free.

And this year, the winners in the first-time eTSY AWARDS for excellence, presented by Expedia Group Media Solutions and Simpleview, will be announced on Wednesday, October 11.

Every October (the month when this city enjoys the best weather of the year) an intimate, two/three-day conference in San Francisco is the epicenter of digital destination marketing.

Why? Because peer-to-peer sharing is integral to the aims, benefits, and actionable takeaways for those who attend eTourism Summit.

The bonus? DMOs can mitigate risks associated with trying new campaigns and digital platform uses by hearing from dozens of executives who bring their DMO experiences to life by sharing recent case studies.
