Registration opens June 10 for Travel Exchange ’25, a four-day event that brings together NTA members for business appointments, insightful education, and key connections, all centered around a bustling tradeshow floor that's a hub of activity and networking. “You won’t have to leave our TREX Floor to find the conversations, the collaboration, and the connections that will take you and your business to the next level,” says NTA President Catherine Prather. “It’s an amazing gathering place, and what sets us apart is the strength of the genuine community you’ll find within NTA and at our events.” The Nov. 9–12 show is set for Canada’s capital city, Ottawa. “I couldn’t be happier that we are bringing Travel Exchange and the NTA community to Canada,” Catherine says. “What a perfect time to celebrate the unity of our association and our industry.” In recent years, NTA has added new and varied ways for buyers and sellers to connect, and Travel Exchange ’25 will offer three new advances: • TREXconneX allows delegates to digitally track the people they meet on NTA’s new exclusively designed app. • Destination Hub is an area on the TREX Floor where operators can gather information from DMOs and tour suppliers grouped by product themes. • Learning Lab provides targeted education content geared toward small groups and one-to-one development. Prather understands why this annual conference means so much to NTA members. “At Travel Exchange, every smile—and every handshake or hug—is the best kind of business you can do,” she says. “This is the show you know … and the connections you need.” https://ntatravelexchange.com/ (fb)
