Welcome to this week's TravelTalkMEDIA Newsletter -
The first week of October is on us and we are officially closing out the summer calendar and welcoming the new fall programming. This week you will have the chance to meet the leaders of four prestigious travel organizations. And you will meet the founder of an innovative company that offers a great way to wear your ID and put it on your luggage, too.

We leave for South Korea and the World Tourism & Investment Summit later this week and look forward to meeting with many of our colleagues there. We will have the opportunity to interview many of the attendees including the Ministers of Tourism and high ranking officials and executives from over 45 countries. I am especially excited to introduce our audiences to America's Tribal Council leaders who represent Native American casino destinations to our show in the next few weeks. For now, enjoy this week's program and please continue to let us know what is on your mind.
Safe Travels,

Sandy Dhuyvetter
