Do You Write About The USA?
UNITED KINGDOM, June 13, 2005. If the answer is yes, you should be at the 2005 See America Media Marketplace where you will meet and network over lunch with U.S. destinations, hotels, car rental firms, theme parks, visitor attractions, railways, airlines and more. You will also be the first to get hot off the press U.S. stories and have an opportunity to plan your U.S. editorial features. This is a unique opportunity to make useful travel contacts in the U.S.
The fifth See America Media Marketplace takes place at the Marriott on Grosvenor Square, London, on Tuesday 21 June 2005 from 11am to 3pm. An important new event at this year's Media Marketplace will be See America Week's first-ever Executive Round Table, from 3pm, straight after the Media Marketplace.
New TIA president, Roger Dow, will be moderating what promises to be a lively debate, with panelists from key US government and tourism offices answering questions on the latest developments in travel to the U.S., entry requirements and security regulations.
Meet Stephan Wasylko, Minister Counselor for Commercial Affairs, U.S. Embassy; John Brennan, Acting Consul General, U.S. Embassy in London; and Kimberley Weissman, U.S. VISIT spokesperson, U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Matt Bates, chairman, Visit USA Association UK will also be available to answer your questions.
