Save the Date: Skift Global Forum 2015 From Oct. 14-15 in Brooklyn, NY

Skift Take

Don't miss out on this year's most inspirational and creative travel gathering.

As 2015 starts, we are busy at work on early planning for our flagship Skift Global Forum for this year.

After a super successful inaugural edition in 2014, today we are announcing the dates and venue for 2015: October 14-15, Duggal Greenhouse in Brooklyn, New York.

We are doubling the size and duration of the 2015 Forum. It will be the biggest creative business forum in travel during the year, with speakers from across all sectors and from all across the globe giving talks around the Future of Travel in 2015 and beyond.

Next week we will open the super-early bird tickets. Add your name to the list here to get notified when the tickets get on sale. If last year is any guide -- we sold out of all tickets a month before the Forum -- this year will be the hottest ticket in travel.

For queries on program and sponsorships, email us at forum@skift.com.

Meanwhile, if you want to relive the 2014 Forum, check out all of the videos here on YouTube.
