2021 Virtual Peer Group Conference

We know how much you look forward to being together every year at Peer Group.  We don't want to let this pandemic keep us from coming together in 2021, so we have decided to have our conference in a virtual format.  This was not an easy decision, but we feel it is for the best because we value your safety and respect your budget constraints that Covid-19 has jeopardized this year.  

In coming to this decision, we surveyed our bank club members about their ability to attend the Peer Group Conference in February 2021, and learned:

• less than 30% would be able to attend a physical conference
• 99% would attend a virtual conference.

We've slashed the price of the conference so everyone can afford to attend:

Registration:  $250 (per delegate) - Normally $885
BAM appointments:  $450 (per company) - Normally $750
Destination Showcase: $750 (per company) - Normally $1,000

We have added these additional benefits at no charge:

• Destination Showcase is now 45 minutes - Normally 30 minutes
• You are now welcome to invite one product person to join you for the BAM appointments only at no extra charge.

A virtual conference provides the unique opportunity to include someone who may not typically be able to attend the in-person conference.  We hope you'll take advantage of it and encourage others in your organization to attend.

We will announce the full schedule soon, but rest assured that we will continue to have many of the sessions that you look forward to, including:

• One-on-one business appointments where every Banker will meet with every Partner (meetings will be scheduled prior to the conference)
• Destination Showcases by every HCI Preferred Tour Operator
• Networking, entertainment and happy hours throughout the conference
• Speakers, educational sessions and online training, including:
• • Promoting Travel Today
  • Using Social Media
    
  • Maintaining Mental Health
  • Panel of Industry Experts discussing Current State of Travel Post- pandemic
  • and MUCH MORE!!

This year, Partners and PTOs will have the opportunity to sponsor a 5-, 15- or 30-minute VidEvent. What's a VidEvent? It is an entertaining destination presentation such as a live or recorded performance, tour or video promotion that will whet the appetites of our delegates. We know that you could really benefit from having extra time with Bankers to promote your destination or attraction. 

VidEvent Opportunities

$95         5-Minute VidEvent
$195     15-Minute VidEvent
$395     30-Minute VidEvent
