Seminars & conferences

Three days of debates, seminars and meetings to design the future of tourism and hospitality

The event within the event: inspirational content, internationally-renowned speakers, panel discussions with experts and companies, case histories, debates between operators. 

The theme of vision, the event’s true common thread, guides the contents of  Think Future, the packed programme of events. 

The theme of the 2023 edition is The year of UTOPIA. Live. Believe. 
The era of UTOPIA is born from a radically transformed environment that is forcing companies and travellers to question their values and behaviour: this is the theme of TTG Travel Experience 2023. For companies, the era of UTOPIA is that in which they must leverage on their abilities to create new product solutions capable of responding to the pressures and sensitivities of a new age. No longer simply a space for escapism and a showcase of beauty, the tourism sector is preparing to welcome and meet the challenges imposed by the modern world.
