ACTA is now taking registrations for its three in-person Summit conferences in September, with Toronto, ON, Richmond, BC and Laval, QC playing host.

“This year will be special for several reasons – but the main one is that we are able to reconnect with each other again following the many challenges affecting our sector during the pandemic,” said ACTA president Wendy Paradis.

“Attendees will experience a positive and energizing atmosphere while learning what’s most important for their career and business growth. They will also meet and network with valuable contacts.”

Travel agents, managers, senior leaders, consortia and host agency teams are all invited to attend. The Summits are complimentary for ACTA members -- while non-members are asked to contribute $99 towards ACTA’s advocacy fund.

The Summits will include keynote speakers, updates from government and industry leaders and opportunities to connect with peers. There will also be a full trade show with prizes awarded throughout the day.

ACTA says Summit participants will have the opportunity to:

-- Gain insight about the latest travel industry trends and the outlook for 2023 and beyond from Canadian and International leaders.

-- Learn from travel agent peers about how they survived and are thriving, including business-building tips and tactics.

-- Hear about the latest and most important advocacy issues facing travel agencies and travel agents and ACTA’s actions to overcome these challenges.

-- Attend a full trade show to network with peers and learn about new and exciting opportunities from over 50 suppliers and destinations.

Registration is now open and full details can be found here.

ACTA will also be presenting the ACTA 2022 Travel Industry Leadership Awards during the Summits and is accepting nominations.
