INTERNATIONAL. The Knowledge Hub programme at the Virtual Travel Retail Expo last week brought together a stellar line-up of speakers from across the travel retail and aviation communities, along with influential figures from beyond the channel in an unprecedented thought leadership programme.
We are pleased to share with our global readership video highlights from the acclaimed programme, beginning with a diverse and dynamic series of sessions from opening day, Monday 11 October.
In coming days we will share many more highlights from the agenda across a memorable, momentous week in the Knowledge Hub. We will also feature the many educational webinars, launches and tastings that contributed to an outstanding Experience Arena programme.
All of these sessions can also be viewed On Demand via the Virtual Expo platform. To register please visit www.VirtualTRExpo.com
