Top Ten Reasons to Attend the 2015 BC Tourism Industry Conference

2. Get Out of the Office
Who doesn’t want to get out of the office from time to time? Escaping the daily grind of your business can be good for you, your co-workers, loved ones, and yes, for business.
3. Face Time
It is good to connect over email, it is better to connect on the phone, but the best way to connect is face to face, and always will be.
4. Meet Industry Leaders
If you aren’t a leader in BC’s tourism industry, one way to become one is to meet those who are. BCTIC attracts the top leaders from across the province – chances are you’ll be sitting beside one in every session!

At events people tend to loosen up and will often share from their portfolio of ideas, like strategies that are performing, or bombed. It’s a great way to gather information to take back to your team at home.
