Talkbackers

Talkback, a signature component of PhoCusWright events, recognizes that not everyone can be a speaker. Immediately following certain keynote remarks, industry peers have a special opportunity to "square off" with Center Stage speakers on Wednesday and Thursday. After listening to a keynote address, Talkbackers take the stage and lead the Q&A (question & answer) segment. A Talkbacker's mission is to ask excellent questions. They should dig beneath the "polite surface" and explore "messier truths" that are below the surface. For consideration as a Talkbacker, individuals must be 1) registered to attend Center Stage at The PhoCusWright Conference—as a delegate, sponsor or exhibitor; 2) a senior executive from a large travel, tourism or hospitality company or CEO of a mid-to-small firm; and 3) willing to be probing, pithy and provocative.
