Travel Marketing AI Summit lands in New York City on March 24
Phocuswright is launching a one-day, executive event focused on how AI is changing discovery, decision-making and conversion across travel. The Travel Marketing AI Summit takes place Tuesday, March 24 at Convene 237 Park in New York City. Register before February 13 and save $300 on your ticket.
This isn't a vendor roadshow. It's a working forum for senior marketing, data and product leaders who need clarity, benchmarks and next moves.
Why it matters for marketing leaders
- Search, media and content are shifting fast; teams need a clear plan for performance and brand impact.
- Budgets are moving from experimentation to scaled programs; leaders want proof and playbooks that work now.
- AI policy, data rights and measurement are raising new questions; the summit promises practical answers over hype.
What to expect
The agenda mixes keynotes, executive interviews and panels with interactive discussions, case studies and focused thought-leadership sessions. Expect real examples, working frameworks and candid debate. The event is separate from The Phocuswright Conference and purposely steers clear of product pitches.
