NYC & Company launches new webinar series to ensure Travel Trade and meeting planners are ‚all in‘ on NYC

NYC & Company, the official destination marketing organization and convention and visitors bureau for the five boroughs of New York City, invites members of the travel trade and meeting and event planners to keep abreast of all the latest New York City updates with the new All In NYC: Travel Trade Webinar Series and All In NYC: Meetings Webinar Series, launching this month. As the Covid-19 pandemic continues to affect travel globally, these comprehensive, monthly webinars will provide educational updates and opportunities to connect with New York City’s world-class hospitality, tourism, meetings and events industry, in partnership with NYC & Company member businesses.

“As New York City’s five boroughs safely reopen and we look to welcome visitors and delegates when the time is right, it is important that we continue to connect with our trusted travel trade and planner audiences, to provide timely updates on the world’s greatest destination as we all continue to navigate tourism’s new normal, and to show how they too can go ‘all in’ on NYC,” said Fred Dixon, NYC & Company President and CEO.

NYC & Company’s Tourism Development and Convention Development teams will be joined by representatives from featured New York City hotels, venues, attractions, museums, tours, experiences and more during the presentations.
