Glasgow is a city that thrives on connection. From its vibrant hospitality scene to its world-class events, success here is rarely a solo act. It’s built on relationships, shared ambition, and a willingness to work together.
That spirit sits at the heart of our upcoming Women in Tourism event, Collaboration: Powering Up Your Brand Through Partnership, taking place on Thursday 4 June at The Delphine in Princes Square.
This session brings together two standout organisations, The Superlative Collection and the Scottish Event Campus (SEC), to explore what happens when brands move beyond working in isolation and start building something bigger together.
Why collaboration matters
In an industry as dynamic as tourism and hospitality, collaboration is more than a buzzword. It’s a catalyst.
When businesses align their values, share resources, and support each other’s growth, the results can be transformative. Stronger brand positioning. Wider audiences. A more vibrant and resilient destination.
This event will shine a light on those outcomes through real examples and honest reflections. Expect practical insights into how partnerships can elevate not just individual businesses, but the wider ecosystem around them.
At Women in Tourism, we believe in the power of connection to unlock opportunity. Creating spaces where ideas, experience, and ambition can be shared is central to our mission of supporting women across the sector.
