Ahead of Wednesday’s TTG Tomorrow’s Travel Leaders conference, find out what the initiative is all about, why young people should go and who will be speaking
Inspirations for tomorrow L
eadership tips, career development advice and life stories from across the travel industry are
the focus of the TTG Tomorrow’s Travel Leaders conference, which is set to take place on Wednesday at WTM London.
Under the title Here’s To Future Days, the travel leaders conference will hear from speakers including John Bevan, chief executive of dnata travel Europe, and Paul Frampton-Calero, chief executive of Tink Labs, who will each be sharing their insight, knowledge and career stories.
All young people at WTM London working in the travel industry today are invited to join the event, the fifth Tomorrow’s Travel Leaders conference from TTG.
Supported by Gold Medal and Travel 2, the event builds on the success of TTG’s 30 Under 30 initiative. Every year since 2012, TTG has picked 30 young people below the age of 30 currently working in the travel industry in the UK or Ireland who we expect to be future leaders of the industry. Former TTG 30 Under 30 members speaking at the event include Iain Powell, head of trade sales at Saga Cruises & Holidays, and Jamie-Lee Abtar, business development manager for the Caribbean Tourism Organization in the UK.
Shared learning The TTG Tomorrow’s Travel Leaders conference has shared the learning and benefits of the TTG 30 under 30 further since 2014, featuring speakers

ranging from Peter Long, then chief executive of Tui, to Bruce Poon Tip, founder and chief executive of G Adventures. Daniel Pearce, chief executive of TTG Media and chair of this year’s conference alongside TTG group editor Pippa Jacks, said: “TTG Media runs many different initiatives and projects across our media output – but nothing is quite as fulfilling as the TTG 30 Under 30 and the Tomorrow’s Travel Leaders conference. It’s brilliant to see many of our 30 Under 30 members and attendees at the conference go on to build their careers further in travel, with many moving into senior positions.
“Since WTM London invited us to Tink Labs’ Paul Frampton-Calero
move the event into ExCeL in 2017, the conference has generated even more excitement and shared even more learning. I would urge all young people at WTM London working in the travel industry aspiring to be a business leader of tomorrow to find a space in their diary for the event.” The conference will also feature the release of exclusive new research from TTG Media on young people’s attitudes to working in travel today – while details of the new TTG 30 Under 30 programme for 2019 will also be revealed.

WORD ON WELLNESS
The importance of looking after yourself while you are developing your career or your business will be a focus for entrepreneur Papillon Luck, a keynote speaker at the event.
The founder and chief executive of wellness travel business 15th Degree, Luck will share her own career story. Described as a “serial innovator and visionary early adopter”, Luck began her business life working in investment banking and with start-up hedge funds. It was here, while working alongside senior executives who struggled to manage their health while travelling, that she saw the opportunity for 15th Degree. Luck spotted a clear gap in the market for a product that would, in effect, give travellers the gift of time, developing a set of natural food supplements that address all functions that cause travellers fatigue: cognition, rest, energy, digestion, circulation and immunity.
For an exclusive number of global business travellers, Luck also runs her exclusive “Fit to Fly” executive coaching programme. Find out more at
