Thank you to those of you who joined the TICT for the 2024 Tasmanian Tourism Conference - Future Focus. The two-day event saw upwards of 400 tourism and hospitality operators and stakeholders gather in Launceston for what was an action-packed program unpacking the trends, challenges and opportunities for the visitor economy in Tasmania.
The Conference, once again, featured practical workshops on contemporary tourism and business skills and insights, the latest industry updates and market intel, inspirational keynote speakers and lots of networking opportunities.
And after two consecutive years of focusing on Positive Impact Tourism - this year we looked beyond the horizon to ask ourselves; what's next?
The 2024 Conference ‘Future Focus’ furthered the conversations had over the past two years and pushed beyond what we know now, inspiring us to think about what is possible for our industry, guided by our 2030 Strategy.
- We unpacked how we create a resilient and innovative industry in the face of constant change and economic headwinds.
- We looked into the latest developments in aviation and sea travel.
- We learned from each other about developing authentic Tasmanian experiences as well as how to harness the rapidly evolving digital landscape to support our work rather than to fight it.
You heard the latest on consumer insights and travel trends, plus we dug even deeper into sustainability and accessibility.
You heard insightful and thought-leading contributions on practical tourism and business skills, cutting-edge destination planning and management, high energy inspirational people, and experienced the very best networking opportunities on the Tassie tourism calendar.
- Day 1: A half day of 12 practical Business Workshops designed for tourism operators and industry professionals wanting tips and insights on improving their marketing, business planning, sustainability, and leadership skills.
- The Evening Event will be packed full of networking opportunities while enjoying the best-of-the-best Tasmanian food and beverage offerings and local entertainment.
- Day 2: Full day of inspirational keynote speakers and panel discussions.
