Pellucid Travel’s Energizing Experience at Connect Sports Marketplace 2024
Pellucid Travel recently participated in the Connect Sports Marketplace 2024 in Milwaukee, marking an exciting return to the city after nearly a decade for some. The event proved to be a memorable experience for the team, starting with the well-organized layout, which separated appointment areas, booths, and an impressive stage for education sessions. One of the first highlights for the team was the Reno Puppy Zone, a popular stop that offered a therapeutic break after a long day of travel.
Reuniting in person was a major highlight for the Pellucid Travel team. While remote work enables them to collaborate with destinations and events rights holders from across the country, nothing compares to the energy and connection of being together in person. The team enjoyed working side by side, strengthening their relationships with one another and their partners.
The first evening featured a dinner with long-standing partner, Alliance Reservation Network, followed by a fun-filled block party hosted by Visit Milwaukee at the Harley-Davidson Museum. The night was capped off with a lively band and an epic drone show, setting the tone for a productive and enjoyable week.
The next two days were packed with appointments, meetings, and conversations with suppliers, planners, and industry partners. Between formal meetings, the Pellucid Travel team embraced opportunities to strengthen current relationships and forge new ones. One memorable moment for the team was attending a Brewers game, hosted by the Utah Valley and Rocky Mountain Region. The home team’s win and the exceptionally clean stadium added to the excitement.
Throughout the week, the Pellucid Travel team’s camaraderie and dedication were on full display. Even while four members attended the trade show, the team back home continued managing operations smoothly, proving once again that their people are their strategic advantage. The event served as a reminder of the team’s strength and the value of connecting in person to drive the business forward.
As the week came to a close, Pellucid Travel left Milwaukee with new partnerships, exciting business opportunities, and a renewed sense of enthusiasm for what lies ahead. The team looks forward to following up on the connections made and is eager to attend future events that will help continue their growth in the industry.
