More than 40 countries. 1 global room. 1 shared focus: Executive Search across markets.   The Kestria Global Annual Meeting will take place in Singapore from May 13th to May 15th, bringing together members from more than 40 countries.   For us as Kestria Germany, this annual meeting is more than an international gathering.

[IMEX PLACE LEADERS FORUM 🌍] Today at IMEX Frankfurt, destination leaders, city representatives, and business events professionals come together for the #IMEX Place Leaders Forum to explore a shared question: How can business events contribute more strategically to the long-term development, reputation, and competitiveness of places? As the boundaries between tourism, investment, talent attraction, innovation, and city development continue to blur, destinations are increasingly called to adopt a more integrated and collaborative approach to leadership. The Forum highlights the growing recognition that business events are not only economic drivers, but also catalysts for knowledge exchange, partnerships, community engagement, and place-shaping. City Destinations Alliance is proud to contribute to these important conversations, represented by Barbara Jamison-Woods and Inge Bauwens alongside international partners and destination leaders from across the global meetings industry. We are pleased to see place leadership, governance, advocacy, and destination strategy taking a stronger role within the wider IMEX Frankfurt programme. #CityDNA #IMEXFrankfurt #PlaceLeadership #BusinessEvents #MeetingsIndustry #DestinationManagement #Advocacy #IMEXPlaceLeadersForum Natasha Richards Ray Bloom

The future of our industry will be shaped in smaller rooms, by leaders willing to be open, honest, and accountable to one another. That’s why Creative Group President Janet Traphagen attended this year’s Associated Luxury Hotels International (ALHI) Executive Women in Leadership (EWIL) event in Charleston, SC, joining hospitality leaders in conversations around connection, leadership, and experience design. One theme stood out throughout the event: attendees are craving experiences that feel more human. Less over-produced. More intentional. More space for meaningful conversation, professional growth, and genuine relationship-building. As our industry continues to evolve, experiences like EWIL are an important reminder that successful event design is about creating the right environment for people to engage in ways that matter. We’re grateful for partners like ALHI who continue investing in leadership, community, and the hospitality industry as a whole. Because leadership, at its best, is shared.
