Troy Thompson

Presented during the 2010 E-Tourism Summit, Troy Thompson of Travel 2.0 examines the current state of the visitor information center and how retail design, mobile and the 'convenience premium' will impact VICs in the future. Highlights include why visitor information centers should look to the Apple Store for inspiration, the mobile traveler and the NYC Go Visitor Center.
