As a tourism destination, PEI welcomes thousands of tourists each year. This year, the McDougall Faculty of Business has the honour to host the Travel and Tourism Association (Canada Chapter) 2024 Conference from October 16-18, 2024. 

In the evolving landscape of tourism, forming effective research collaborations is crucial for solving complex challenges and driving meaningful innovation. This year’s conference theme, ‘Bridging Research Frontiers', encourages participants to explore new connections and partnerships to discover creative solutions and share transformative ideas.

Whether delving into sustainable tourism, the impacts of disruptive technologies, or exploring non-traditional or unique career paths in tourism research, the conference invites tourism researchers to broaden their professional connections and consider diverse perspectives on key issues.

The theme highlights the vital role of partnerships among various stakeholders in tourism, including academics, students, industry practitioners, and government entities.
