Our opening sessions interacting with the New York Conventions and City Tourism partners took place in their Manhattan based HQ which was only a short walk from our base for the week in Fitzpatrick’s Hotels in Grand Central and Manhattan properties. Lunchtime enabled us to stroll to Central Park before reconvening with all 5 borough stakeholders in the Hard Rock Café for a full on Marketplace engagement with fine food and beverages for all to enjoy. The day and night concluded with a star filled, sun setting and moon rising epic opening ceremony for all delegates and partners at the Edge observation deck.
