GBTA revela a programação do Media Day para a Convenção GBTA 2017
The business of travel has brought the world within reach, with borders blurring and people intersecting in all corners of the globe. The pace of change is unrelenting, but companies are constantly innovating to meet the changing needs of the industry.
Convenção GBTA brings the entire industry together making it a “can’t miss” event. Every year there is a spectacular line up of speakers and educational offerings as well as the largest business travel Expo floor and countless networking opportunities, making it truly, the Business Travel Event of the Year.
On Sunday, July 16 starting at 9am, Media Day is back for its third year with a new-and-improved format. More than two dozen companies (more than ever before!) will release their breaking news as part of the event from the GBTA Broadcast Studio in the North Lobby of the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center.
A seating area immediately in front of the Studio area will be available for press attending in-person as company executives take the stage for one-on-one on-camera interviews about their new products and announcements with industry consultant and Media Day moderator Monisa Cline. Press will have the opportunity to ask each participant questions after they step down from the stage or can arrange one-on-one follow up interviews throughout the week. New this year – reporters who cannot make it in person can tune in to our Facebook Live stream!
