Explore the future of destination analytics with the DI Overnight Room Demand Analyzer (ORDA). Take a deep dive into the tool that is reshaping the way we understand and analyze the actual room demand associated with events hosted in your destination. As the landscape of event planning undergoes significant shifts and the relevance of this tool increases, ORDA provides insights into a world where traditional event history is no longer a reliable guide. This session will explore fundamentals, best practices, and use cases that will equip destinations with the knowledge and skills needed to navigate the complexities of the modern events landscape and how they approach event analytics.

Accessibility is not only the right thing to do, but it can help your destination connect with a vastly underserved audience. With 1 in 6 people having sensory needs and 1 in 36 children diagnosed with autism, it's crucial to foster welcoming and accessible spaces for every individual. This session, organized by DI's Business Operations Task Force, will take a journey to uncover effective strategies for inclusivity by exploring what visitors are looking for, sharing examples of accessibility initiatives and Certified Autism Destinations, and discussing how to leverage effective programs and partnerships that ensure your efforts make a meaningful difference. IMPORTANT NOTE: This opportunity is ONLY available to Destinations International members.
