The Power of Co-Location: Luxury Travel & MICE Converge
Extensive industry research highlights the rising convergence of luxury leisure and MICE travel, as high-net-worth travelers increasingly demand seamless, high-end experiences that integrate business and leisure elements. New this year, ULTRA Summit will co-locate with the Global Meeting & Incentive Travel Exchange (GMITE), reflecting the growing synergy between luxury leisure and MICE travel. The shared agenda presents expanded business development and learning opportunities, including a joint evening reception on May 6 and integrated sessions during the “Trends & Topics” conference on May 7.
This integration enhances business development opportunities for both sectors and underscores the growing demand for high-touch, experience-driven itineraries that seamlessly blend business and leisure travel.
