With COVID-19 continuing to drastically impact the tourism industry, tourism operators and stakeholders in Whistler are invited to take part in an online Summit hosted by the Thompson Okanagan Tourism Association (TOTA) and the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast Tourism Association (CCCTA).

Registration for the Summit, which takes place Nov. 25 and 26, is free at bctourismsummit2020.vfairs.com/en/registration.

The Summit is an “invitation to build a better tourism industry, regionally, nationally and globally, by learning together,” according to a release, with a theme of “Moving Forward Better—Recovery, Resiliency and Regeneration.”

The TOTA and CCCTA “have built a fully virtual, online program around 50 provocative, world-renowned speakers and industry experts from around the globe,” the release said.

“Registration is free for all attendees, and includes networking opportunities, live Q&A sessions, a virtual silent auction, discussions around the latest developments in tourism, climate action and community building, as well as the chance to explore industry and community resources while interacting with live representatives within virtual booths—all from your home or work office.”

It all kicks off on Wednesday, Nov. 25 with the TOTA and CCCTA Annual General Meetings at 10:30 a.m., followed by an official opening at 12:30 p.m.
