    Skift & Phocuswright to give keynote addresses at MarketHub Americas!

    Media Name: 1920x515_-_2.jpg

    Were you aware that at our MarketHub events the speakers don’t just include our biggest partners and senior management, but also some of the industry’s most important thought leaders? Journalists, analysts, regulators, business lobby groups, bankers, management consultants and even astronauts have all spoken at past MarketHubs. 


    This year will be no different and we are pleased to confirm that the leading trade media publication Skift and the respected travel technology analyst Phocuswright are sending senior speakers along to our Americas and European editions. 


    From Phocuswright we are honoured to confirm that Robert Cole – a Phocuswright renowned contributor and founder of the RockCheetah consultancy – will be speaking at the Americas event; and that Dr. Peter O’Connor – Senior Market Analyst – will be speaking at the European event.
    Meanwhile from Skift, we are proud to announce that Dennis Schaal – Skift’s founding editor no less – will participate at our Americas event whilst the Skift European Correspondent Patrick Whyte will be at our European event. 


    In both the cases of Skift and Phocuswright their representatives will be giving a key-note speech followed by hosting a round-table with hoteliers – all focused on our ‘SHIFTING FUTURES’ theme, allowing us to explore in depth the future of the hotel accommodation distribution eco-system. 

    As on previous occasions, MarketHub events brings together for a three day event the senior decision makers of the leading tour operator, airline, travel agency, and loyalty and reward partners globally in a dynamic environment of networking, learning and fun.


    This year the Americas event will take place in Cancun and will kick-off on the evening of Tuesday 7 May and the European event will take place from Tuesday 27 May in Istanbul. 


    We are privileged to have as our hosts for the Americas event the new, luxurious Grand Palladium Costa Mujeres Resort, located in Costa de Mujeres, only a short journey from Cancun.
