THE SUMMIT We are so excited that you are interested in joining us as a sponsor of the Women in Travel Summit! This event is truly special, with women influencers gathering from all over the world to share their experiences, network with inspired brands, and promote safe, connected travel for women everywhere. Our fifth-annual event takes place at the Fairmont Le Château Frontenac in Québec City, Canada. It begins with an opening party on Friday evening, May 4, 2018 and ends with an afternoon closing session on Sunday, May 6. Between those times are loads of workshops that cover content relevant to travel media and industry members, as well as networking events, parties, and more. The weekend is sandwiched between FAM trips and excursions for our guests to really get to know their area, plus pre-conference activities for those who want even more learning. You are about to meet the most energetic group of bloggers you've ever come across! We hope you'll join us for this inspiring event.

WHY BLOGGERS? 65% OF COMPANIES WORK WITH INFLUENCERS. ARE YOU ONE OF THEM? TapInfluence says that today, influencer marketing is now 11x more powerful than traditional advertising 84% of customers have made a purchase after reading about a product or service on a blog (Technorati, 2013) In the 18-34 age range, blogs are the #1 decision- making factor influencing buying decisions (above friends/family, news, even consumer reports. Research Now, 2014) COMPANIES THAT WORK WITH INFLUENCERS ARE AT THE FOREFRONT OF DIGITAL MARKETING TRENDS. BUT THEY SPEND UP TO 11 HOURS PER WEEK DOING SO (OVER 500 HOURS PER YEAR)!
