What we're exploring
The Tourism Summit explores "tourism for good" as an exciting way to futureproof your business for tomorrow's travellers. With many of the most forward-thinking businesses in the UK becoming B Corp-certified and hospitality organisations improving their Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) credentials, the summit will provide practical guidance on why becoming a more ethical and sustainable tourism business will also lead to greater profits.
Many ESG values will be discussed and analysed including sustainability, inclusivity and authenticity within a framework of what tomorrow's travellers will demand from tourism businesses, helping you become more relevant to the next generation of tourists.

Sustainability
Overtourism is a serious issue and we're at a point where sustainability is a 'must have' for a viable tourism sector in the future. Travellers are wise to green-washing. Businesses need to demonstrate grass roots action today to attract tomorrow's tourists. But sustainability is more than ecotourism, it's about moving from a recyling mentality to a circular economy for the environment, people and profit.
Build a circular economy together and take responsibility now for generations to come.
