A Catalyst for Community Vitality - Part 2

Welcome to a special 2 of 3 podcast episode arc around the release of our brand-new research study, Destination Promotion: A Catalyst for Community Vitality. The report emphasizes the pivotal role of destination organizations in shaping the economic and cultural landscape of communities far beyond the realms of traditional tourism.

Our discussion today will unravel how these organizations, act as catalysts for a broad spectrum of economic benefits. Through research and analysis provided by Tourism Economics, Longwoods International, Clarity of Place, and MMGY NextFactor, the report illuminates the extensive, catalytic economic impacts of destination promotion.

We want this episode to share perspectives on how strategic destination marketing not only enhances visitor experiences, but significantly contributes to the overall economic vitality, quality of life, and cultural richness of communities, fostering economic growth, cultural development, and community well-being.

Join me in welcoming one of those destinations from the study as well as one of the research partners who helped work on the project. Welcome to the Show Michael Crockatt, President/CEO from Ottawa Tourism and Cassandra McAuley from MMGY Nextfactor!
