The Power Of Communities In The Travel Industry



Going it alone isn’t the strategy for 2026.
Being connected is.

Want to know how to get make your travel business even better by connecting with like-minded individuals?
Being part of the right community can change everything for travel businesses.
Not just who you know – but what you learn, how you grow and where your company goes next.
On 23rd April 2026, we’re teaming up with The Conscious Travel Foundation to explore how communities can unlock real value for travel businesses.
Whether it’s where your audience hangs out, or where other travel founders are solving the same challenges as you.
We’ll cover everything from collaboration vs competition, and to how shared efforts can drive a bigger impact than working in silos.
And more importantly, how you can find and make the most of the communities that actually move the needle for your business.
Not to mention how communities can support you through tougher moments – not just the wins. 💪
You’ll also hear from Olivia and Maudie at the The Conscious Travel Foundation on how purpose-led communities are helping reshape the travel industry for the better.
The Conscious Travel Foundation is a global, non-profit membership community that promotes meaningful and positive impact travel through education, collaboration and thought leadership.
Along with our very own north9 Founder, Tom McLoughlin, who’s seen firsthand how powerful the right network can be.
He’ll be sharing how communities have shaped our own company – from partnerships and PR opportunities to shared knowledge and support when it matters most.
If you’re looking to grow your brand, build meaningful connections, and stop trying to do everything alone – this one’s for you.

What Our Clients Say:
We instructed north9, around 18 months ago, and they have literally transformed our business. We went from around 1,500 organic hits per month to consistently over 20,000. The initial requirement from our side was link-building; north9 recommended that a full-site audit and additional on-site SEO would give us the best value for money. In addition to the huge increase in organic traffic, we now have a website with significantly deeper content which has enhanced confidence in our client base.
In addition to SEO/link-building, north9 now looks after our PR, email marketing, and social media strategies. We have also recently launched a second business and have already asked north9 to provide their expertise here too.
