The Intersection of Travel and Disability

Meet Parakeet and Learn Dozens of Virtual Conference Hacks in One Day

August 20, 2020 by Jake Steinman

THE MEETING FOR VIRTUAL MEETING PLANNERS

New Event Space—the digital one. This virtual one stop shop event will be held on September 10th and 11th. Originally conceived as a dress rehearsal for TravelAbility Week, the goal is to help meeting planners plan smarter and make their events sing. As readers of this newsletter you know, TravelAbility comes at a crucial time. Instead of white- knuckling it through the upcoming months, we’re helping the travel industry prepare to attract 77 million baby boomers who will be aging into a disability over the next decade. In a nutshell, here’s our mission for the event. PARAKEET will: 

  • Reduce confusion by inviting the top platforms and API’s to demo based on unique features
  • Showcase cutting-edge tech that best replicates human engagement.
  • Highlight the most creative ways other organizers have used platforms

Now all you need to do is tell a colleague about us! You can find news about Parakeet (including a downloadable list of the 112 virtual conference platforms we researched and an explanation of the methodology) here.
