Nexion Travel Group Canada is hosting its first-ever CanEx conference from April 27-28 in Toronto. The event will bring together colleagues and network suppliers for education sessions and immersive networking to spark collaboration. They also promise some fun along the way…like a post event outing to a Blue Jays vs. Red Sox game.

“We’re thrilled to provide this exclusive opportunity for our Canadian travel advisors,” said Jackie Friedman, President, Nexion Travel Group.

“We hope that participants will have a chance to sharpen their skills, strengthen relationships and be inspired by new ways to serve their clients. We also want to use this occasion to celebrate our vibrant community of Canadian travel advisors and the terrific job they do every day.”

The conference will feature updates from Nexion Canada’s leadership team, as well as the opportunity to hear from preferred supplier partners. Twenty-seven preferred supplier partners are scheduled to attend, including representatives from cruise lines, airlines and tour operators. 

Attendees can also look forward to education workshops lead by Nexion staff, including an advisor peer panel that will focus on ways to build/grow your business in an ever-changing industry. 

There will also be a Think Tank led by Nexion President Jackie Friedman, giving advisors the opportunity to discuss with each other a variety of topics related to running their businesses. In addition to Friedman, Laura Bjorne, Vice President of Business Operations, and Esther Roemmele, Director of Canadian Operations, will also be on hand.
