The event will offer Independent Agencies in the Avoya Network product and sales education as well as networking opportunities with over 50 land and destination supplier representatives.

The three-day Land Forum is designed to increase Independent Agency knowledge of land products, as well as provide new land partners the opportunity to build relationships with Independent Agencies in the Avoya Network. Highlights include key notes from Paula Hayes, vice president of Globus family of brands and Robyn Basso, senior director at Hawaii Visitors and Convention Bureau. The event offers Independent Agencies educational workshops, supplier and peer-to-peer panels, general sessions, a tradeshow, specialist certification courses and networking.
