We look forward to building off that success at the 2019 NAB Show and connecting travel media and video professionals with companies at the upcoming NAB Show New York.

Citizine will present The Power of Video in the $1 Trillion Travel Industry on October 17 as part of the 2018 NAB Show New York conference program. The session will explore the effect of video on consumer travel spending and how filmmakers, media service providers, brands and influencers can best develop and monetize their content.
