There
is no better opportunity to learn and meet others in the travel
industry with the same LGBT marketing goals. Community Marketing does a
great job of providing new educational content in an ever-changing
environment and providing access to representatives from the top

Community
Marketing has been a catalyst for the Dallas Convention & Visitors
Bureau. Participating in CMI's International Conference on Gay &
Lesbian Tourism has increased my awareness and has allowed me to
network, develop partnerships, and find new business. This conference
is one that we attend annually, and one that I refer all my colleagues
in the industry to attend and become engaged.

Director of Diversity and Community Relations, Dallas Convention and Visitors Bureau

CMI's
International Conference on Gay & Lesbian Tourism is one of the
best opportunities that CVBs, suppliers and media have to all come
together to dialog on trends surrounding gay and lesbian consumers.
This conference is exceptional in addressing the buying patterns and
changing media involved in the LGBT audience. If you want approaches to
researching, planning and booking travel, you should not miss this
conference. The opportunity to meet with colleagues focused on this
category, and to hear first hand what they are doing to address this
niche, is priceless to us. We find the sessions invaluable and the
breakouts are not to be missed.

I
always enjoy Community Marketing's International Conference on Gay
& Lesbian Tourism. I look forward each year to reuniting with past
participants as well as meeting the attendees new to the gay &
lesbian tourism community. The programs offered are diverse,
educational and appeal to each aspect of the tourism industry. The
variety of industry services and niches represented in the attendees
has allowed for unexpected partnerships to form. Overall, attending
each year has proven successful for EIS.

CMI's
8th International Conference on Gay & Lesbian Tourism in Fort
Lauderdale was the best educational event I have ever attended. This
was our first time and we are already planning to attend next year's
Conference in Vancouver. The seminars were incredibly informative and
it was great to network with my CVB peers.
