Destination Summit 2018

Thank you to all who joined us for our 2018 Tourism Exchange on May 8, 2018 at the Embassy Suites in San Luis Obispo.

As a resource for our lodging investors and partners, we professionally recorded all of the sessions and posted them below, along with pdfs of their corresponding PowerPoint presentations. During the Tourism Exchange, Visit SLO CAL also released its FY2018/19 Year in Review Scorecard--a concise, 6-page document highlighting the impact and progress that VSC has made over the past fiscal year.
