Luxury trends under the spotlight at TTG Luxury Travel Summit

Following last year’s sold-out event, the all-day conference will be held on 18 October and will be a barometer of the health of the luxury travel sector.

Under the theme of The New Luxury, speakers will reflect a wide range of businesses operating both within the sector and further afield.

“We’ve reached a tipping point: the luxury travel industry now needs to be more dynamic, more eco-focused, even more customer-centric and use its position to be world-changing,” said TTG Luxury editor and conference organiser April Hutchinson.

“It’s a bold statement, but one we feel worth making, and you can be sure we will bring an array of changers, experts and innovators to the event to debate the current and future state of the luxury travel business and discuss what The New Luxury looks like.”

TTG Luxury will once again partner with Stylus to present keynote trends, and speaking at the event will be Mandy Saven, head of food, beverage and hospitality for the leading trends analysts and forecaster.

Other speakers confirmed include Tom Marchant, co-founder of game-changing travel company Black Tomato.

Celebrity Cruises will partner with TTG Luxury as headline sponsor for the event, while Visit Finland, Accord Marketing and ANA, All Nippon Airways will join as co-sponsors.

• Earlybird tickets for the all-day conference are available to book now for £199 until August 2.
