Brand USA is to launch a week dedicated to events to promote travel to the US.
Brand USA Travel Week, scheduled for September 9-13 2019 in London, will include a series of B2B meetings, educational opportunities, and consumer activations.
"Brand USA Travel Week will be a game-changer for the US travel community," said Thomas Garzilli, chief marketing officer at Brand USA.
"We believe that Brand USA Travel Week has the potential to change the way that the United States engages with the UK and European markets, promoting more opportunities than ever before for Brits and Europeans to visit the USA to, through, and beyond the gateways."~

"Through the creation of Brand USA Travel Week, we are sending a strong signal of intent to grow visitation from the UK and Europe by placing a spotlight on the USA’s world-leading tourism assets. The program will bring together public- and private-sector partners with key business interests in the USA and will be a vehicle to support growth in the US travel sector," added Garzilli.
