Fresh perspectives!

At the Global Forum you will gain fresh perspectives from your association peers and 12 BestCities destinations. The Global Forum will take a practical approach to clearly identify what we mean when we talk about the generation of impact through the congresses that are held in a city. Research findings will be shared from a unique event legacy research study between Destination Vancouver and Capilano University. The partnership between industry and university research teams will create a framework of best event legacy best practices, designed to increase overall sustainability of global tourism sector through societal impacts from the events industry. You will be the first to access findings from the study!

Global Forum Facilitator

I am honoured to be a part of the BestCities Global Forum and look forward to welcoming you to Vancouver in December.  Together we have an opportunity to shape and influence partnerships that can have an impact on sustainability and changing lives on a global scale.  We will have a chance to understand this impact, through the Vancouver based research team, as they analyze and then present their findings on conference impact and legacy.  I look forward to working with you in inspiring ideas, sharing experiences and looking at ways that conferences can further shape our world and future.
