Welcome

Igniting Innovation

This has been a breakthrough year for the tourism industry. National policy and industry advocacy has never been stronger; Brand USA launched its marketing campaign, shepherding in an exciting chapter in international travel; and Nevada’s global presence increased to include four new emerging international markets. It’s never been more important to hear from national and local policymakers, best-in-the-business marketers and industry game changers.

The 2012 Nevada Governor’s Conference on Tourism is bringing these key issues and opportunities to you during two days of insights, educational and opportunities and time to network with the best in the business. Plus, we have a few surprises that’ll make this conference particularly special.

The conference officially kicks off at 1:00 p.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 4, and concludes at 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 5. The registration fee includes all regular sessions, selected special sessions (including the pre-conference Technology Forum and the Nevada Marketplace – offering 1:1 interaction with domestic and international tour operators and media), materials, daily refreshment breaks, Tuesday evening reception and dinner and Wednesday’s continental breakfast and lunch.
