Held in Hobart, the event reflected everything Connected Travel stands for: fresh, purpose-driven and built differently.
From curated supplier workshops to local highlights like MONA and the Posh Pit ferry ride, the focus was on hands-on learning and genuine connection.
“This was never going to be a sit in a conference room all day kind of event,” said Marissa Papas, Director and Founder.
“We’ve built something different here and this conference brought it to life.”
From new agents launching on July 1 to long-standing members, the event highlighted the strength of the Connected model.
A standout moment was the recognition of an advisor who’s been with Connected since day one – five years ago.
“We don’t use the word family lightly,” added Marissa. “It means sharing the laughs, the tears, the good and the hard parts. That’s what makes this community so special.”
Suppliers who attended included Amanda Fenwick (ETC), Lara Anderson (NCL Cruises), Greg and Michelle (Wide Eyed Tours), Kristy Marshall (Stuba), Maxine Wiggs and Mary (eRoam) and Kim Vaughan (AMAWaterways).
