THE ONLY MEDIA EVENT SOLELY DEDICATED TO CELEBRATING SUSTAINABLE, POSITIVE IMPACT STORYTELLING!
We believe positive impact storytelling is to create travel content, that inspires tourism that enriches the lives of both visitors and the host communities.
The marketplace, now in its 2nd year, will take place over one full day, to build and foster relationships with an enrichment session, to shape and amplify our collective voice.
The Awards (IGMAs) now in their 4th year, will be held on Monday evening, and will recognise excellence across the global travel media landscape, celebrating individuals and organisations bringing to life stories of sustainable, positive impact tourism.
The marketplace is for positive impact suppliers, tour operators, destinations, and industry partners, looking to share their stories with the media, through one-to-one pre-scheduled meetings.
The engaging and interactive enrichment sessions will provide thoughtful content, practical learnings and an opportunity to share and exchange knowledge with one another.
The full list of winners for 2025 can be found HERE

AWARDS TO CelebratE positive impact storytellers
The Awards (IGMAs) now in their 4th year, recognise excellence across the global travel media landscape, celebrating individuals and organisations bringing to life stories of sustainable, positive impact tourism.
There are plenty of travel media awards out there but there were none recognising the positive impact that storytelling can and should have. So well done to Inspire Global for launching these much-needed and timely awards.
