WE BELIEVE THAT DESTINATION ORGANIZATIONS ARE ESSENTIAL TO THE SUCCESS OF DESTINATIONS WORLDWIDE AND THE CORNERSTONE OF THEIR COMMUNITIES. THAT IS WHY WE INVEST IN RESEARCH, ADVOCACY, TALENT DEVELOPMENT AND GLOBAL ENGAGEMENT AND EXCHANGE.THE FOUNDATION TAKES AIM AT THE ISSUES DESTINATIONS FACE DAILY. AS ONE OF THE LARGEST FUNDERS OF RESEARCH TO DEVELOP A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF OUR INDUSTRY AND THE ENVIRONMENT WE OPERATE IN, WE ARE COMMITTED TO EXPLORATION. WE SET INDUSTRY STANDARDS THROUGH DESTINATION ORGANIZATION PERFORMANCE REPORTING, COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS STUDY, AND STANDARD PERFORMANCE REPORTING STUDIES.

WE DEMONSTRATE THE CATALYTIC IMPACTS OF OUR EFFORTS THROUGH THE DESTINATION PROMOTION: AN ENGINE OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT STUDY; AND WE BUILD THE FOUNDATIONS FOR PRODUCTS SUCH AS THE EVENT IMPACT CALCULATOR BY FUNDING BASELINE CALCULATIONS.THE FOUNDATION INVESTS IN PREPARING THE LEADERS OF TOMORROW THROUGH PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND MENTORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES. THROUGH PROGRAMS LIKE 30 UNDER 30, HBCU SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM AND THE APPRENTICESHIP PROGRAM, WE ARE DEVELOPING FUTURE INDUSTRY LEADERS THAT REPRESENT A DIVERSE SET OF BACKGROUNDS AND PERSPECTIVES. THE 2022 CLASS OF 30 UNDER 30 INCLUDED PARTICIPANTS FROM 3 COUNTRIES: UNITED STATES, CANADA, SOUTH AFRICA.

OUR EDI STUDIES ON DESTINATION ORGANIZATIONS HIGHLIGHT THE NEED TO CULTIVATE UNDERREPRESENTED IDENTITIES INTO LEADERSHIP ROLES. WE RECOGNIZE THAT UNDERREPRESENTED STUDENTS HAVE MANY BARRIERS TO ENROLLING, ATTENDING, AND GRADUATING FROM COLLEGE. STUDENT LOANS POSE AS ANOTHER OBSTACLE TO GAINING FINANCIAL SECURITY AFTER GRADUATION.
