A big thanks to over 100 travel professionals who joined us in Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney this week!
Our Australian Travel Massive community had a great opportunity to connect at meetups, welcome new members, learn about the latest trends in hospitality and travel, and meet the team from Stripe.
Brisbane: Special thanks to Sean Sutherland (Head of Product - Air & Accomodation, Flight Centre), and Sandra Swatton (Founder & Managing Director, Hospitality Associates) for sharing their insights on our panel. Also thanks to our local chapter leaders Dennis Basham (Exoticca) and Mark Gregory (Jayride) for bringing our community together from Brisbane and the Gold Coast.
Melbourne: Thanks to Jean Cheney (Melbourne Travel Massive) for organising our Melbourne community, and the team at QT Melbourne for their fantastic hospitality for our guests at their rooftop bar.
Sydney: Thanks to Stripe for hosting our community at the newly launched W Rooftop Bar, and to Lauren Moelk (TravMedia) and Christine Whyte (Hospitality Solutions) for the outreach to their networks.
And finally, a huge thanks to Stripe and James Lemon (Travel, Transport and Leisure Lead at Stripe) for making these events possible and bringing along local team members and partners in each city to join us.

We had an absolute blast this week bringing the Travel Massive community in Australia together at meetups in Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney.
Running three events, in three days, in three different cities isn't easy, so I'm very grateful for all the local support from our community leaders (Dennis, Mark, Jean) and to all our regular members for getting behind us.
Also, a big welcome to new members who I met for the first time. It's exciting to bring new people into the Travel Massive network and see people build new friendships and connections. After all, that's what Travel Massive is all about!
And finally a big thanks to James from Stripe — he made a huge effort flying from the UK to Australia and we really appreciate their world-wide support of Travel Massive.
Next stop... Singapore, then London. See you at the next event!
