287: Sustainable Tourism Marketing with Kevney Dugan and Todd Montgomery

In this episode of the Destination Marketing Podcast, host Adam Stoker talks with Kevney Dugan, President and CEO of Visit Bend, and Todd Montgomery, Director of the Oregon State University Sustainable Tourism Lab. They discuss the importance of understanding the impacts of tourism on communities and the environment and the need for sustainable practices. Todd highlights the work of the Sustainable Tourism Lab in educating future industry professionals and the challenges and opportunities in the tourism industry, and Kevney discusses the need for destinations to measure with new performance metrics. "There is so much more we need to be thinking about and so much more we need to be measuring to truly understand the impacts of the industry and ensure that we don't overcook it and ultimately have to do more 'damage control'. We can actually control our narrative and work towards that future versus being more protectionist." -Kevney Dugan Visit Bend Oregon State University Sustainable Tourism Lab Follow the Destination Marketing Podcast on social media: Instagram Twitter YouTube TikTok Subscribe to our newsletter!
