BRIDGETOWN, Barbados - Generasi selanjutnya dari pemimpin pariwisata Karibia akan mendapatkan inspirasi dari pemimpin muda dan dinamis dari salah satu perusahaan resor terkemuka dunia selama Caribbean Week New York.

CEO Sandals Resorts International, Adam Stewart, 33, akan menyampaikan pidato motivasi di Student Colloquium - sebuah kontes di antara mahasiswa pariwisata Karibia di perguruan tinggi, yang ditantang untuk mempresentasikan proyek pariwisata berkelanjutan yang diteliti dengan baik, praktis dan layak secara finansial.

Digambarkan sebagai "maverick dalam misi, agen perubahan yang energik, dan inovator yang tidak dibatasi oleh konvensi," Stewart diharapkan untuk berbagi pengalamannya dalam memimpin pertumbuhan dan perluasan merek global sejak dia mengambil alih sebagai kepala eksekutif petugas pada usia 25 tahun. Presentasinya merupakan bagian dari dukungan untuk Caribbean Week New York oleh Sandals Foundation, organisasi filantropi nirlaba. Yayasan juga mendukung Forum Diaspora dan akan melakukan presentasi di sana.

“The Sandals Foundation is thrilled to take part in Caribbean Week in New York and to specifically sponsor programming such as the Diaspora Forum and Student Colloquium that champion the cause of Caribbean people,” said Stewart, who is also president of the Foundation. “Since its inception in 2009, the Foundation has maintained a holistic approach toward ensuring sustainable national development in the region, improving the lives of our neighbors with programming aimed at education, community and the environment. We look forward to coming to New York to share our plans with friends of the Caribbean.”

Caribbean Week New York, which is scheduled to take place from 1-7 June, is the largest, most engaging regional tourism activity in the New York area. Produced by the CTO in partnership with its members, its primary objective is promoting the Caribbean as a vibrant and exciting travel and business destination.

“We see the support of the Sandals Foundation as demonstrative of the Caribbean’s growing global prowess as a sustainable tourism destination,” said Sylma Brown, the head of the CTO New York Office, the producer and executor of Caribbean Week. “Through this support we plan to enhance our Caribbean tourism management strategy through two important pillars: stronger relations with our large Diaspora and by honing the creative skills of the next generation of Caribbean tourism leaders.”

Forum Diaspora Karibia berlangsung pada hari Senin 2 Juni mulai pukul 6:00 hingga 9:00, sedangkan Kolokium Mahasiswa akan diadakan pada hari Selasa 3 Juni mulai pukul 2:30 hingga 5:30. Kedua acara tersebut akan diadakan di Hilton Times Square, 234 West 42nd Street, New York.
