June 3 Monthly GANYC Meeting

GANYC held its June monthly membership meeting online via Zoom. We will be holding all our monthly meetings in this format for the next several months. At last night's meeting, President Emma Guest-Consales gave her presidential report. Most importantly, we featured three excellent guest speakers:

• Fred Dixon, President & CEO, NYC & Company. He provided updates on how they are preparing to relaunch NYC.
   
• Thomas Dunne, founder, CEO and President of OnCell. He discussed how his company creates immersive digital experiences for cultural institutions that can be both on or offsite to stay engaged with visitors.  Recently they have created an app for tour operators and guides.
   
• Jon Peahl, President, SanSee Systems. SanSee is the first global hygiene program designed from the ground up exclusively for tours and attractions.  In the wake of Covid-19, SanSee was formed with two goals: Boost the confidence of the traveling public, and  help tours and attractions reopen faster by offering a science-based design and cleaning program.

We also had a preview of the Tour Your Own City website that will launch soon.
