2015 New York Travel Festival Speaker/Expert/Pathfinder Submission Form
The 2015 New York Travel Festival is not a typical travel show. We want folks who won't talk at people, but, rather, will be excited to engage in a dialogue with a well-versed audience of tech-savvy, immersive travelers.

There are multiple opportunities for those wishing to get involved as a speaker/expert:

* In-venue presentations, panels, and workshops on Saturday, April 18, at W83, 150 W. 83rd St. and Sunday, April 19th at Hostelling International-NYC. (Saturday and Sunday talks will be scheduled from 11 AM - 6 PM.)

* Experts' Corner on Saturday, April 18th, which consists of 15-minute one-on-one meetings between experts and attendees.

* Pathfinder Consults on Sunday, April 19th - Pathfinders help attendees discover career paths within the world of travel

* Online events in anticipation of the main Festival weekend, including Google+ Hangouts and Twitter chats.

PLEASE NOTE: Unfortunately, NYTF can't cover any travel and/or lodging costs, nor offer a stipend for speakers/experts.
