Modern travel agency Fora hosts its largest annual conference to date, fostering connection and innovation across the travel industry.
Fora concluded its fourth annual Live Forum last week, welcoming more than 600 travel advisors and 250 hospitality partners to three days of networking, professional development, and community celebration at Brooklyn's Knockdown Center.
The October 14–16 event brought together Fora's international network of independent travel advisors with leading hotel groups, tour operators, destination management companies, and tourism boards for immersive programming designed to strengthen partnerships and drive the industry forward.
“At Fora, we’re building the most innovative, most diverse, and most collaborative community in travel—for our advisors, our partners, and ultimately for travelers everywhere,” said co-founder Evan Frank.
Live Forum 2025 featured structured speed networking sessions connecting advisors with suppliers, inspiring keynotes from industry leaders, and hands-on workshops focused on business growth strategies. The conference also included partner-hosted experiential programming and dine-arounds throughout New York City, offering attendees opportunities to experience hospitality offerings firsthand.
Since its founding, Fora has positioned itself as the modern travel agency—empowering independent advisors with technology, training, and community support. Part of the invite-only Virtuoso consortium, Fora partners with industry leaders like Four Seasons, Rosewood, and Marriott, plus more than 7,000 other partnerships.
