Considering that the inception of Skift 10 years back, our mission has stayed strong: Assisting you– the travel professional– find out, grow and be influenced, by providing the best content, items and occasion experiences understood to the professional world.
Skift International Forum is the pinnacle of this– the culmination of all we do here at Skift, brought to life onstage with informative conversation, exclusive research, and world-class speakers from every element of the travel industry.
From the very first SGF in 2014, we knew we had something unique. And this year, the 10th anniversary edition, will be no different. In truth, it’ll be better. See, we have actually invested the last seven International Forums (and numerous other Skift-hosted occasions) “leveling up,” reinventing our shows to better serve the ever-growing travel community.
As we prepare to raise the curtain on our 2022 Skift Global Online forum, we wanted to reminisce on a few of the figures and highlights from over the years. Take a look …
