GAUGING ROI
These stories represent just some of the business conducted as a direct result of attending a GTM by Northstar event.
"The amount of knowledge gained at GTM West is incomparable—between the one-on-one speed date meetings, boardrooms, and general sessions, I truly learned a great deal. Add in all the fabulous networking throughout, and you have the greatest travel event in our industry!”
- Ellen Geissel, Mouse World Travel
“Attending GTM Luxury alongside fellow luxury-focused travel advisors and suppliers was an invaluable opportunity to engage with a highly specialized network of industry leaders. Unlike broader travel conferences offering a wide array of resources, this event delivered refined, purposefully curated experiences tailored to our niche. The format fostered seamless connections with knowledgeable, vetted colleagues, ensuring every interaction was meaningful and productive. Every detail was thoughtfully designed, making the entire experience exceptionally efficient and rewarding.” - Robin Katz, Cruise Planners - Designer Journeys
“GTM North America was a game-changing event for my business. It gave me the chance to step “offline” for a few days to build relationships and learn from a wide range of suppliers. It also allowed me to connect with new colleagues and strengthen existing relationships—helping me grow my business and better serve my clients. It was an incredible experience from start to finish!” - Bridget Edwards, Let’s Travel with Bridget
