Skift Global Forum’s Editorial Program Is Set

The schedule for our flagship event, Skift Global Forum, is set and we promise that this is one for the books.

In less than three weeks — September 26-27 — the biggest CEOs across all sectors of the travel industry will join us at Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Frederick P. Rose Hall, Time Warner Center, NYC to discuss their visions for the future of travel.

Have You Secured Your Ticket?

Now’s your chance to find out when the CEOs of Delta Air Lines, Hilton, Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd., TripAdvisor, and more will take the stage and go head-to-head with the Skift editorial team. The full schedule is here and our complete speaker list is here.

This year we’ll have a good mix of one-on-one Q&A sessions and Panel Talks, with a handful of Skift Talks sprinkled in. In our Deep Dive Q&As our Skift moderators will ask tough questions about each speaker’s company and its role within the larger travel industry. And in our panel discussions, you’ll get the chance to hear multiple perspectives on a major topic or specific sector within travel.

And as a reminder, we announced our expansion into covering the food and beverage sector right before last year’s Forum. Travel and dining out go hand in hand, and at this year’s event we’ll have two key sessions exploring this intersection. With that said, we’re thrilled that both René Redzepi, Chef & Co-Owner of noma, and Danny Meyer, CEO of Union Square Hospitality Group, will join us onstage to discuss creativity, innovation, and the business of restaurants.

Most importantly, this year we’ll be opening up the floor to you. We’re integrating an innovative and interactive Q&A tool that gives the Skift Global Forum audience the chance to ask questions to each speaker at the end of most sessions. More information on this to come.

The only catch is you have to be there to get in on the action. There won’t be a live video stream of the event this year, so be sure to secure your spot at the live event!
