2024 WINNER: SITE Ireland

SITE Ireland was recognized for the chapter’s focus on educational excellence, innovative outreach, and community impact, shaped by its Young Leaders.

The chapter’s Young Leader board collaborated with universities and tourism bodies to recruit more young professionals to the wider industry, and to educate students about the possibilities of incentive travel. 

Chapter activities also included a strong emphasis on CSR, with SITE Young Leaders organizing charity fundraisers and keeping a keen eye on advancing sustainability best practices.
