What if the words “Sustainability” and “Climate” sparked feelings of Joy rather than Doom?
WE THINK IT’S TIME TO APPROACH THIS TOPIC ON A POSITIVE NOTE.
The Sustainable Travel Executive Summit is a collaborative event spearheaded by Sara Eastwood, founder of RAS International; Susan Lichtenstein, founder of TAMS; and Phyllis Tess, founder of Purple Cow Consulting and Executive Director of the Travel and Meeting Society.
The Summit's mission is to reenergize the concept of sustainable travel by inspiring the business, luxury, and leisure travel industries to embrace sustainability with joy, enthusiasm, and a genuine desire to improve our world—all while enhancing our everyday lives in the travel sector.
Sustainable actions can be easy and enjoyable, yet over time, they have been overshadowed by regulations, rigid travel policies, and a sense of impending doom.
At the Sustainable Travel Executive Summit, we offer a fresh perspective. We aim to demonstrate how sustainability can be seamlessly woven into travel while fostering flexibility, attracting engaged business associates and clients, and maintaining an awareness of the environmental impacts of travel. Our goal is to help travel professionals moderate behaviors so that future generations can continue to enjoy the same incredible travel experiences and opportunities we have today.
During the Summit, participants will hear from a diverse group of experts on creative ideas and emerging trends in sustainable travel. This event is not focused on diving deeply into organizational travel policies but rather on exploring new possibilities.
Designed for travel business owners and department leaders, the Sustainable Travel Executive Summit encourages participants to explore the world of sustainable travel through the experiences of trailblazers. It is an opportunity to connect with like-minded professionals across the travel industry and the world. You will leave with a clear understanding of sustainable travel and how exciting and accessible it can be, feeling inspired and energized, not bogged down by dry statistics and policies.
