The second day commenced with an energizing Opening General Session, where Global Travel Collection’s president, Angie Licea, highlighted luxury travel’s path forward. J.D. O’Hara, Internova Travel Group’s CEO, and Albert Herrera, Internova Travel Group’s EVP of Partner Relations, welcomed Elevate attendees with a fireside chat. Speakers included Space Perspective’s Jane Poynter and neuroscientist Dr. Vivienne Ming.

While one-on-one appointments went underway, advisors also engaged in dedicated experiential circles carefully curated to foster collaboration. The GTC Experience Room opened for advisors to explore the dozens of exclusive programs and services available to them and their clients, and learning sessions covered leading travel industry topics. The evening concluded with Partner Experience Dinners and a Speakeasy in the Virgin Hotels Sky Lounge, where glasses clinked as advisors and partners celebrated their new connections.
