Meetings Meet the Moment Image In-person business meetings power the group travel industry. Yet the value of convening in person is routinely treated as subjective, hard to quantify, and judged solely in terms of cost and convenience. Executives who want to hold an offsite meeting face internal pressure to justify the expense and lack the arguments and evidence to respond effectively. As a result, meetings are scaled back, delayed, replaced by alternatives, or not held at all. Executives do not need to be convinced about the value of getting together. When the business value is clear, research shows they recognize it and want to meet in person. But they need the language to make the case. “Meetings Meet the Moment” is designed to give it to them. An Industrywide Campaign Developed by members of the U.S. Travel Association’s Group Travel Network, “Meetings Meet the Moment” is a unified industry platform designed to shape how business executives understand when and why meeting in person is worthwhile. The campaign is built on original research and provides a consistent set of messages and resources that can be deployed across organizations, channels and audiences. These resources are designed for member organizations to adapt and distribute to their marketing and sales teams. Members are encouraged to incorporate them into client campaigns, sales conversations and content channels.
