2021 Education Summit & Vendor Showcase

September 29 - October 1, Vancouver, WA

This fall, DMA West members will spend a few days together reflecting on shared experiences, acquiring new tactics as they look to the future, and — most important — celebrating the resiliency of the destination-marketing profession with colleagues and friends from across the West at the 2021 Education Summit & Vendor Showcase at the Hilton Vancouver Washington.

For your destination, your organization and yourself
Advocacy, economics, industry best practices, cultural tourism, career decisions and more are part of the offerings at the upcoming Education Summit. Attendees will gain insights about group sales, meeting planner expectations and marketing innovations. Delegates will learn how to position their destination organizations for success in the coming months and years. And, attendees will have critical conversations, develop strategies, and gain the tools and resources needed along with engaging experiences in Vancouver. Vendor Showcase representatives will be at the conference to discuss the right marketing technology systems and options for DMOs.

And, we’ll have some fun as well at the Experiential Sessions (Waterfront Wonder and Cultural Crossroads) and evening events.

We look forward to seeing industry peers for this in-person conference. Attendees can enjoy reacquainting themselves with industry friends and colleagues at the Education Summit.
