TravMedia is proud to announce CNN's foremost international correspondent and anchor, Richard Quest, as Keynote Speaker at The TravMedia Summit Australia 2024, to be held at Four Seasons Hotel Sydney on 22 February as part of IMM (International Media Marketplace) Australia. Based in New York, Quest is one of the most instantly recognisable members of the CNN team.
“After his captivating Keynote presentation at IMM North America this year, I am thrilled Richard Quest has agreed to join us in Sydney to share his story and insights with the audience at The TravMedia Summit Australia. I have long admired and been inspired by Quest as a preeminent travel and business correspondent, anchor and author. I can't wait to have him here in Sydney,” said TravMedia's CEO and Founder Nick Wayland.
Beloved for his immersive travel series, Quest's World of Wonder, which finds Quest exploring a new destination each month and meeting fascinating people who reveal the heart of the city, his dynamic and distinctive style has made him a unique figure in business broadcasting. Covering breaking news for more than three decades, few journalists have had guests as varied, from His Holiness, The Dalai Lama to actress Joan Collins to founder of Playboy Magazine, Hugh Hefner.
Quest is also the established airline and aviation correspondent at CNN, where he presents the monthly CNN Business Traveller show, the definitive authority on making the most of doing business on the road.
"Whenever anybody asks me what's my favourite destination, I always say Sydney, Australia," Richard Quest said earlier this year at IMM North America. "So the ability and opportunity to visit is just tremendous."
The TravMedia Summit is the forum for the travel industry to connect and learn from its most influential leaders. Presented the day before IMM, the conference brings together travel and tourism PRs, editors and travel writers to inspire ideas, share insights and discuss the trends, opportunities and challenges affecting our industry.
Award-winning technology entrepreneur Matt Barrie, CEO and Founder of Freelancer, also joins the lineup of speakers at next year's TravMedia Summit Australia, discussing AI and the Future of Work. Twelve-time Webby award-winning freelancer.com is the world's largest freelancing and crowdsourcing marketplace by total number of users and projects posted.
