The Global Tourism Summit is the evolution of the long-running Governor’s Conference on Tourism. This shift recognizes the significance of international tourism, an industry that supports about 1.1 million United States jobs and wages of $29.2 billion, according to the U.S. Travel Association, a national industry organization.
