Description

HOW EXPOSED IS YOUR TRAVEL BUSINESS?

You may think you are fully covered by insurance, but are you really? Are you willing to bet your house on it?

The rise of Travel Agencies and Travel Advisors working directly with international DMCs has left most agencies and advisors financially exposed. A simple audit has found that many who think they are well-covered are, in fact, exposed to financial ruin should the unforeseen happen.

Join us and hear from three industry experts about managing risk in tourism businesses, business insurance and an innovative new approach to travel insurance.

Guest Speakers:

Brad Brooks, Travel Industry Partnership Manager, PassportCard

Introducing the award-winning PassportCard, an innovative new approach to travel insurance enabling travellers to cover medical expenses, stolen cash, and delayed luggage on the spot, without being left out of pocket. Learn how more of your clients can be covered with PassportCard's unique approach to pre-existing medical conditions and no age limit.

Lori Modde, Vice Chair, NSW Tourism Association

Lori will provide an overview of how effective risk management not only helps safeguard businesses against potential threats - such as natural disasters, economic shifts, reputational damage, and health crises - but also contributes to long-term sustainability and resilience of tourism businesses.

Rebecca Fleming, Client Manager - Tourism & Travel, Lockton Companies Australia

Is your approach to insurance putting your business at risk? Rebecca will share expert insights on securing fit-for-purpose business insurance - ensuring your assets, operations, and reputation are protected with the right coverage tailored to your tourism & travel business needs.

A two-course lunch and welcome beverage are included with your ticket.

We look forward to seeing you on Wednesday, 13 May 2026!

The Vibe Hotel Sydney is a short 3-minute walk from Museum Train Station. Public parking at Secure Parking is available across the road. The entrance is at the first driveway at the lights on Goulburn St, cnr of Elizabeth,
