Welcome to our new Executive Update, which is being repositioned to share more frequent industry updates and data-driven reporting. I still want to use this communication to keep our partners apprised of Meet Boston programs and activities, but the focus will be shifting to provide more metrics and results.    

Earlier this month, I was in Barcelona for PCMA’s Convening EMEA event, which I attended along with Meet Boston’s SVP of Sales & Services, Nik Pereira, and our VP of International & Sports Sales Stephanie Pappas. Convening EMEA is one of the world’s premier business events, and the 2024 program was both interesting and inspiring.

After EMEA, the Sales team headed to IMEX, where Meet Boston hosted 476 appointments at our booth and engaged with 4,600 buyers as the sponsor of the Hosted Buyer Lounge.

The travel hasn’t slowed down. Last week, we had team members in Japan for the IGLTA Annual Conference, while others attended Brand USA Travel Week in London. I also participated in the CEO Track at the Brand USA event.

In November, we will head to Paris and Dublin for media and trade events in those important markets. Working with our in-market reps, we have developed great programs in both cities; we expect very strong attendance from both travel media and travel trade operators.
